Can you tell me where the light goes
Every time your eyes close?
If it's there, then it doesn't show
Tell me where the light goes
I wanna know

Can you tell me why the room dims
Every time you leave it?
And I'm a shadow of a heartbreak
And a ghost of all the endings
Oh, I wanna know
I wanna know-oh-oh

'Cause I burn like fire
And I walk on wires
If I lose myself
Just meet me part of the way
Part of the way-ay

Will you tell me where the light goes
Every time your eyes close?
If it's there, then it doesn't show
Ah, tell me where the light goes

There's a feeling that I don't get
When I'm reeling from the night sweats
Take a roll around a cigarette
And I still don't feel quite like me yet

'Cause I burn like fire
And I walk on wires
And I lose myself
When you just give it away
Give it away-ay

Will you tell me where the light goes
Every time your eyes close?
There's a wall that was a window
Tell me where the light goes
Oh, I wanna know-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh

I don't wanna lose my place
I'm still afraid
Pray to the gods that bring down the endings
I think I get it, but I don't understand
How it can blind me
And then it's over

Will you tell me where the light goes
Every time your eyes close?
If it's there, then it doesn't show
Tell me where the light goes

Tell me where the light goes
Yes, tell me where the light goes
There's a wall that was a window
Ah, tell me where the light goes
Oh, I wanna know-oh-oh-oh
I wanna know-oh-oh-oh
I wanna know-oh-oh-oh
I wanna know-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

Tell me where the light goes
Tell me where the light goes
Tell me where the light goes
