[Verse 1]

We all were born helpless

And not yet numb to the pain

We climb aboard the propeller

And go out the way we came

I saw how you suffered

And I was covered in shame

I take offense at my comfort

And never remember your names


[Chorus]

Light my night light

Please let me pretend this is gonna end well

Light my night light

Please let me pretend this is gonna end well


[Verse 2]

I am blaming the software

There’s something wrong with the code

Then we fight for solutions

As if we’re screaming at ghosts

It’s all a part of the display

It only adds to the pain

I left my car on the freeway

And I'm never going back again


[Chorus]

Light my night light

Please let me pretend this is gonna end well

Light my night light

Please let me pretend this is gonna end well


[Verse 3]

I keep surmising you’re next

And my indifference withdraws

I begin pulling you closer

And mourn each passing day lost

It’s like I’m fighting a sickness

Convincing me we’re already gone

Sometimes it feels like God is a DJ

And “Tribulation” is His favorite song


[Chorus]

Light my night light

Please let me pretend this is gonna end well

Light my night light

Please let me pretend this is gonna end well


[Chorus]

Light my night light

Please let me pretend this is gonna end well

Light my night light

Please let me pretend this is gonna end well
