Lights off, lights off, had to take a night off
Wish it could be anybody, someone you relied on
They only love you if it's so long, so long
Singing you a swan song
They don't really love you 'til you're gone
(They don't love you 'til you're dead, no)
They don't really love you 'til you're gone
Cast me out like I'm an alien (alien)
I see your face, I get that pain again (pain again)
'Cause anyone and everyone is desperate to be someone
Before they went away, forever and a day
But they'll forget your name, until you're six feet in the grave
And now your plans are down the drain again
They don't really love you 'til you're gone
Love you 'til you're dead, so see you later on
Ruin it from the get-go, I'll be better off
Demons in my head, don't tend to lead me on
Did 'cause he said so, said so
They don't really love you 'til you're gone
They don't love you 'til you're dead, no
(They don't really love you 'til you're gone)
Hold up, hold on, sleeping with the light on
I can see your smile every time I turn the light off
Hold on, hold on, I knew you wouldn't last long
Memorize the messages I left you in your iPhone
Hold on, hold on, just try to keep a light on
Time has a funny way of righting every dead wrong
Running for the door before the ground gives way
Told you all before you'll never
They don't really love you 'til you're gone
Love you 'til you're dead, so see you later on
Ruin it from the get-go, I'll be better off
Demons in my head, don't tend to lead me on
Did 'cause he said so, said so
They don't really love you 'til you're gone
They don't love you 'til you're dead, no
(They don't really love you 'til you're gone)
They don't realize we were talking, we were talking
The other night like it was nothing, it was nothing
They act surprised like it was shocking, didn't see it coming
They never realize 'til it's something
They don't really love you 'til you're gone
Love you 'til you're dead, so see you later on
Ruin it from the get-go, I'll be better off
Demons in my head, don't tend to lead me on
Did 'cause he said so, said so
They don't really love you 'til you're gone
They don't love you 'til you're dead, no
(They don't really love you 'til you're gone)
They don't love you 'til you're dead, no
They don't love you 'til you're dead, no
