lyrics

please leave the light on
when you walk out the door
you know I can't take the dark
much anymore

at least leave a note
leave it on the bed
i'll read it when i get home
get it stuck in my head

are there rules for this?
any tools for this?
momma never taught me it
but i'm done
you're out on the run

should i be crying?
or cursing your name?
i just feel nothing
but you're gone all the same

tell me, what were you thinking?
were we even on your mind?
turned your back on thirty years
as if it was fine

there are no rules for this
i made my tools for this
you sure as hell never taught me it
but i'm done
you're out on the run

you made your bed now lie in it
messed with my head you'll live with it

are there rules for this?
any tools for this?
i wish that you had taught me it
but i'm done
you're out on the run
