Lights Off
Jay Sean · All or Nothing [2009]
I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired
It's you that I'm missing
It's like my brain is wired up
and there's a glitch in my system
You're like a drug and now my blood won't stop itching
I'm in critical condition
someone let me out of this prison
It's like my mind is playing tricks on me lately
I could of sworn that you are still my baby
I'm on a merry-go-round
going around, driving me crazy
That's why it feels like
losing you is like somebody just turned all the lights off
won't somebody, anybody
please just turn the lights on
I won't take one step
I can't see what's coming next
losing you is like somebody just turned all the lights off
can't see at all (at all, at all, at all)
can't see at all (no, oh no)
can't see at all (at all)
cause it's like somebody just turned all the lights off
I don't understand how one minute I just had it all
now I can't reach you cos I'm tied up with this straight jacket on
I can't breathe (breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe)
I can't see (see, see, see, see, see, see, see)
It's like my mind is playing tricks on me lately
I could of sworn that you are still my baby
I'm on a merry-go-round
going around, driving me crazy
That's why it feels like
losing you is like somebody just turned all the lights off
won't somebody, anybody
please just turn the lights on
I won't take one step
I can't see what's coming next
losing you is like somebody just turned all the lights off
can't see at all (at all, at all, at all)
can't see at all (no, oh no)
can't see at all (at all)
cause it's like somebody just turned all the lights off
Used to see my world in color girl
when you left me it's like my world turned gray
turn my winter into summer girl
why won't you help me turn night to day
I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't think at all
honestly it feels like I ain't living no more
can't say no more, can't see no more
Baby that's why it feels like
losing you is like somebody just turned all the lights off
won't somebody, anybody
please just turn the lights on
I won't take one step
I can't see what's coming next
losing you is like somebody just turned all the lights off
can't see at all (at all, at all, at all)
can't see at all (no, oh no)
