Light On from Tossed by Kaiti Jones

So I don’t wanna kiss you with the light on with the light on
Cause in the dark the blackest parts of my heart feel at home
Cause in the dark the blackest parts of my heart feel at home

It’s been a long long time since 22
And bout the same time that I stopped loving you
Painting bodies in the summer, sculpted by the land
Oh tell me what the hell’s a girl supposed to do

Cause I could never wrap my head around the things you saw in me
I just wrapped my arms around you in relief
And you named me as an artform, claimed me as a muse
And I just laughed and gave away my unbelief

Ooooh

So I don’t wanna kiss you with the light on with the light on
Cause in the dark the blackest parts of my heart feel at home

You said hey there darlin, I just turned away
as if I didn’t notice all the perfect things you say
cause you were shining lights and I was always pulling shades
cause some things they don’t look the same
in the light of day

And wherever life may find you
Whoever loves you right
Well I hope she radiates the room with light
But please remember me a painting
Immortalized and true
Keep my silhouette a fixture of the night

So I don’t wanna kiss you with the light on with the light on
Cause in the dark the blackest parts of my heart feel at home
Cause in the dark the blackest parts of my heart feel at home
