I saw the glimmer of a silhouette The part of me that died had just come back Empty visions in a parking lot I spent my whole life lying, I just got caught Cold and dark by the riverside I search for answers at night I've got nowhere to hide I've got bruises beneath these ripped up jeans, I'm tired of this old life Where were you when I needed you the most When it got dark and I got cold You were never there when I got home The streetlights sing just like a curse You only seem to make things worse Now it's getting hard to breathe The streetlights sing me fast asleep I spent my summers catching fireflies The part that flickered bright had just now died My innocence stopped making sense I've got no place left to hide Where were you when I needed you the most When it got dark and I got cold You were never there when I got home The streetlights sing just like a curse You only seem to make things worse Now it's getting hard to breathe The streetlights sing me fast asleep The streetlights sing but the flashlights won't bring you home Bring you home The streetlights sing but the flashlights won't bring you home Bring you home Where were you when I needed you the most When it got dark and I got cold You were never there when I got home The streetlights sing just like a curse You only seem to make things worse Now it's getting hard to breathe The streetlights sing me fast asleep Now it's getting hard to breathe The streetlights sing me fast asleep The streetlights sing me fast asleep
