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
