Gabriel Mann Lighted Up Lyrics

what comes to mind today
is where i was before
sitting lonely trying to stay so drunk
waiting for somebody to leave open some door

tuesday came and went as quickly as expected
didn't notice that i needed it to stay
and you know sometimes i need to be neglected
sometimes love looks good in gray

and i believe
somewhere there's a vision in the dark
but i can't see
unless there's someone there with a spark

to keep me lighted up
to keep me lighted up to keep me lighted up
to keep me lighted up

now you're back in dc
and i'm in los angeles again
the cold wind grips you like a fist
and the spotlight here is not my friend

but i believe
sometimes there's a need for separation
and i can't say
i need to find another way

to keep me lighted up

and i believe
somehow there's a prism in the dark
and i can't see
unless it's you there with a spark

you keep me lighted up
