[Verse 1]
I lay next to myself, breathing slow
Car crash in rewind
"There's nothing you could have done", said a soft voice
"Calm down, you will survive"
Leave me out of my mind, sedated
Bitter and blurry-eyed
Please don't look me in my face when I'm wasted
You know you can't relate

[Chorus]
And the world got a little more dim tonight (Whoa-oh-oh)
The world got a little more dim tonight (Whoa-oh-oh)
Though you had to go, I won't forget your light
The world got a little more dim tonight (Whoa-oh-oh)

[Verse 2]
Days come just like our friends with the soft glow
A warm touch that slowly fades
You're just out of my rеach, oh, in the shadows
Still young but weatherеd grey

[Chorus]
And the world got a little more dim tonight (Whoa-oh-oh)
The world got a little more dim tonight (Whoa-oh-oh)
Though you had to go, I won't forget your light
The world got a little more dim tonight (Whoa-oh-oh)
[Post-Chorus]
I will protect your light
I will protect your light

[Bridge]
Lay down with me tonight, breathing slow
Back in your driveway
Rest now, kiss me goodbye in the morning
I'm with you always

[Chorus]
And the world got a little more dim tonight
The world got a little more dim tonight
