Lights

Call me when the light comes on

I've been waiting here for days

Every time your bad genes call

It seems we're parting ways

So call me if you need me

And even if you don't

I can get us moving now

And I think you know you won't

And so I screw things up

I'll fix them in the end

I don't think I've had enough

Sometimes it depends

Call me when the lights go out

So I can wait around for years

It's funny how your good genes come

To find out I'm never here

So call me if you want to

And even if you can't

I can make you happier

But I will never be your man

And so I screw things up

But I'll fix them in the end

I wonder if I've had enough

Well sometimes it depends

And so we all build things up

So we can cop out in the end

I wonder if you've had enough

Of the things that you defend

Of the things that you defend
