Bilal Hassani - Lights Off Lyrics

Why are my lights turned off?
I need to check, someone's knocking on my door
"If you lie again you're gonna get cut off"
My neighbor told me as I pushed him on the floor

Days like this go by
They always are the same
Nobody is to blame
And I can feel the shame
Ooh, nah, nah, nah
I did bad things, can't deny (la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
But take a closer look, carefully read the book
You'll find a holy truth, nah, nah, nah

You could say that I'm a criminal
That I did it with a smile (did it with a smile)
You could punish me with all you got
But you can't go back in time

Why are my lights turned off?
I need to check, someone's knocking on my door
"If you lie again you're gonna get cut off"
My neighbor told me as I pushed him on the floor
Why are my lights turned off?
I need to check, someone's knocking on my door
"If you lie again you're gotta get cut off"
My neighbor told me as I pushed him on the floor

Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
My neighbor told me as I pushed him on the floor

Got to stay in my house
But it just came my way, maybe I couldn't pay
I had to face the fame, oh, nah, nah, nah
Letters on my doorstep (la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
I wouldn't open them, I couldn't play the game
I had to run away, na-na, na-na, na
You could say that I'm a criminal (oh-oh)
That I did it with a smile (did it with a smile)
You could punish me with all you got
But you can't go back in time (ow)

Why are my lights turned off?
I need to check, someone's knocking on my door
"If you lie again you're gonna get cut off"
My neighbor told me as I pushed him on the floor
Why are my lights turned off?
I need to check, someone's knocking on my door
"If you lie again you're gonna get cut off"
My neighbor told me as I pushed him on the floor

Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
My neighbor told me as I pushed him on the floor

Think I made a big mistake, I wish I could just disappear
My hands are not so filthy, I could cry right in the second
I know people don't understand the sinner may be honest, girl
But I swear I didn't mean it, but damn, it just felt so right
I also have to stand in to attend
And if I miss it, they gon' talk about it
But after all, it's better this way
I forgot to buy dessert and I don't wanna see their faces
I could skip going to places
My life needed this after all
I could just lay in my bed and-
What was I talking about?

Now all my lights are on
And I won't check when he knocking on my door
"I didn't pay and I don't wanna get cut off"
I told my neighbor as I pushed him on the floor
Now all my lights are on
And I won't check when he knocking on my door
"I didn't pay and I don't wanna get cut off"
I told my neighbor as I pushed him on the floor

Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
I told my neighbor as I pushed him on the floor
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
My neighbor told me as I pushed him on the floor (mwah!)
