[Verse 1]

I refuse to feel

I cannot choose what's real

I wanna say I don't worry

I wanna say I won't cry

I wanna say that we'll all live

Like nobody ever dies

I wanna bring it all back

I wanna stop telling lies

I want the smiling figures in the dark

To be real, too, in the light

[Chorus]

Do I need the light?

Can't I keep my eyes closed longer?

All my love's in sight

Can't we let it all get darker?

[Verse 2]

It is getting harder to cheer

I might have to accept my worse fear

I wanna say I won't worry

I wanna say I don't cry

I wanna say that I'm not scared

When I look in their eyes

I wanna bring it all back

But I cannot defy

Are you saying figures in the dark

Are real, too, in the light?

[Chorus]

Do I need the light?

Can't I keep my eyes closed longer?

All my love's in sight

Can't we let it all get darker?

[Post-Chorus]

(Hey, hey)

(Woah, woah)

(Woah)

[Bridge]

I know I feel

Woah, woah

Woah, woah

I know what's real

Woah, woah

Woah, woah

Let me feel (Ah)

Woah, woah

Woah (Woah, woah)

Let me be real

Woah, woah

[Pre-Chorus]

(Don't forget)

(I'm with you in the dark)

[Chorus]

Do I need the light?

Can't I keep my eyes closed longer?

All my love's in sight

Can't we let it all get darker?

[Outro]

Do I need the light?
