I can't be no use to you
if I can't be good for myself
I can't make it better for anybody else
Maybe it's our light's gone out
Turned off in an empty house
Nothing's gonna change until I do
And I can't be no use to you
if I can't make this on my own
I can't make it better
if I can't face this all alone
And it would be so easy to stay easy,
and that's what I fear
I'd never want to look back
and regret it all by staying here, and
Maybe it's our light's gone out
Turned off in an empty house
Back there's not a place that I can be
On my own
So far from home
From where we've been
I'm scared, and yet I'm not alone
I know that you are here with me
Inside my heart, you'll always be
You're all I've ever known
I'm just afraid of slipping backwards
Back there's not a place that I can be
All that I am is slowly turning
And now you're not in front of me
Baby, it's the last thing that I'd ever want to do
Is go ahead and leave you now
Maybe it's the moment that you find a way to run
'Cause, baby, I can't turn around
Maybe it's our light's gone out
Turned off in an empty house
Back there's not a place that I can be
