Leave Me in the Dark
I was born with bloodshot eyes
And a broken heart
I've got the experience
But I'm not very smart

I was raised on a shoestring
I was thrown to the wolves
I cut my teeth on minor chords
I was trampled under hooves

If love is blind, baby
You can leave me in the dark

You can count on your fingers
Everyone you've ever kissed
You don't waste your time waiting
On things that don't exist

You choose your weapons
You know when to bite your tongue
You're done dwelling on
What they did to you when you were young, yeah

If love is blind, baby
You can leave me in the dark
Who knows what we might find
If we knew where to start
Ooh
Ooh

Everyone has loose ends
Maybe it's time to let go
The answer to your question
Is you already know

You can push my buttons
I've been waiting here so long
I've always known what's good for me
But I chose to do what's wrong

If love is blind, baby
You can leave me in the dark

Who knows what we might find
If we knew where to start
Who knows what we might find
If we knew where to start
