If you're headed towards the light
Make room for one more soul
I given all the time I can
It's starting to take its toll
I've walked this earth from edge to edge
It lied in such a drought
Seeing all I didn't see
I see why some opt-out
The world's been rather cruel to me
I came in bare and stranded
If I get back what I put in
I'll be leaving empty handed
The good've gone bad
The sane've gone mad
Yet they all fight to survive
The worthwhile wasn't
The feel-good doesn't
And there's no getting out alive
So if you're headed towards the light
Make room for one more soul
I given all the time I can
I've lost my self-control

If you're headed towards the light
Make room for one more soul
I given all the time I can
It's starting to take its toll
I've walked this earth from edge to edge
It lied in such a drought
Seeing all I didn't see
I see why some opt-out
The world's been rather cruel to me
I came in bare and stranded
If I get back what I put in
I'll be leaving empty handed
The good've gone bad
The sane've gone mad
Yet they all fight to survive
The worthwhile wasn't
The feel-good doesn't
And there's no getting out alive
So if you're headed towards the light
Make room for one more soul
I given all the time I can
I've lost my self-control
