I was just a kid Didn't know the rules I was just a kid Didn't think things through Everything I did It fell all on you You didn't seem to care You didn't seem to care I knew things were wrong All bad things I've done I knew things wrong But you pushed me on Didn't give up faith You didn't give it up You still believed in me When I fucked it up I spend every day Working hard to change my ways And I spend every night Up alone and still I fight With monsters In my head Making me wish that I was dead But you're there And you always care Every time I call you share I will always be there When life Doesn't treat you that fair And I will wait about a thousand nights Just know your brother won't Turn out the lights I've been gone for a while now I still won't let you fall down I will wait about a thousand nights Just know your brother won't Turn out the lights I've been A better man Than I was 4 years ago I've been On steady plan Till I can let my dreams show You've been The better man Picking me up when I feel broke You been The better man Giving my ass the damn well needed poke In the right direction Don't care if we fought as children That's what people do when they're just learning To live and laugh Nothing wrong with that And I'm still sorry that I called you boring Cause you were getting a degree your dreams still soaring Now you've made a whole Life with that I spend every day Working hard to change my ways And I spend every night Up alone and still I fight With monsters In my head Making me wish that I was dead But you're there And you always care Every time I call you share I will always be there When life Doesn't treat you that fair And I will wait about a thousand nights Just know your brother won't Turn out the lights I've been gone for a while now I still won't let you fall down I will wait about a thousand nights Just know your brother won't Turn out the lights Don't turn the lights out on me I watch you I fall I bleed Don't turn the lights out of me On me On me I Will always be there When life Doesn't treat you that fair And I will wait about a thousand nights Just know your brother won't Turn out the lights I will always be there When life Doesn't treat you that fair And I will wait about a thousand nights Just know your brother won't Turn out the lights I've been gone for a while now I still won't let you fall down I will wait about a thousand nights Just know your brother won't Turn out the lights
