Madilyn Jaz - The Light Hurts My Eyes

I just wanna lie here
You don't have to stay
Click off that lamp, dear
You can't carry the weight
The light hurts my eyes
Or maybe it's nicer to think in the dark
Won't show my disguise
Can't go very far
Just tell her she's sick but don't tell her why
Paint on my skin to see into my mind
Hearing the hustle and bustle of city folks witty enough to make it back home
She's quite tougher, it's rough on her here and all on her own
All on her own
I don't feel like talking please
But one day we'll have conversations about
What made us feel heavy
Before light came back around
I'm sure it'll pass soon
I sound like those sad songs that keep your eyes shut
The ones that you listen to
Rested head til you slowly stand up
Even the floor feels comfortable when I'm this vulnerable
Forget where new bruises are coming from, insufferable
Everything's the same, never felt so different
Dangling in space and pushed off by ignorance
Weakened like sweaters that fall off their hangers
Can't keep up with others and driven by anger, it's true
It's easier sometimes to do what you're told
Not bat an eye, shrug a shoulder
'Cause maybe what hurts is your pleasant surprise
Not sure, all I know is the light hurts my eyes
The light hurts my eyes
Just tell her she's sick but don't tell her why
Paint on my skin to see into my mind
Hearing the hustle and bustle of city folks witty enough to make it back home
She's quite tougher, it's rough on her here and all on her own
All on her own
I just need to lie here
Can't ask you to stay
Click off that lamp, dear
