A man goes undercover
To chase what he can't catch
When living on the surface
In the world of his regrets
He's an animal
from the stars

Moving through the shadows
He lives in submarines
He seldom turns his lights on
And he never sees the green
He's a criminal
In the dark

'
Turn on the lights
'
Turn on the lights
Let the day kiss the night "Goodbye"
Goodbye

He's running from his story
Afraid of what he sees
Yeah, there's a weight upon his shoulders
He's heavy in the knees
Oh-whoa-oh

Here comes Messiah
With the blanket of His peace
He's washing him with water
With the tears upon his cheeks
Yeah, he's a prisoner
Who's been released

'
Turn on the lights
'
Turn on the lights
Let the day kiss the night "Goodbye"
Goodbye

We were animals
from the stars
Becoming criminals
in the dark.
