Lights
I know it must be hard
To waste your patience on
A pretty face
A perfect song
Puzzle with the pieces gone
I know she blew your candles out
Left you on your back
Hollywood is hell
You’ll be back on fire in no time
That’s a fact

But when all your nights are long
When you take a picture
But the lights are all wrong
When you don’t wanna be strong
You ain’t gotta be strong
Just hold on

Close up, rack focus on my face
And I look like a child there
Hopeless and hungry for a while there
Pays staying busy
Payson to Bisbee, baby
Hollywood can miss me
If it ain’t got you
But when all your nights are long
You take a picture but the lights are all wrong
When you don’t wanna be strong
(I see ya tryna be stronger)
You ain’t got to be strong
Motherfucker
You’ve gotta believe me
When I say
You’ve got friends

So glad I know ya
I found a way I can show ya
I know it must be hard
When we live so far apart
Stars on the street or above ya
You better believe that I love ya
And when the lights are wrong
You’re gonna have this song

I know that makin’ it ain’t easy
Easy, or free
But you make it easier
For someone like me
You’ve gotta believe
