Bright Side

In the night time
I play tryna keep my thoughts on the bright side
Sometimes I think that you left with my right mind
Who's gon' keep the light on when my bright side's gone?

Take it away, take it away, give it away
Runnin' away, I wanna go, I wanna stay
You were just mine all of the time, you're in a haze
Lookin' at you, killin' me slow, feelin' so strange
I don't know, it's got me feelin' vindictive
I wanna see you suffer, now the energy's shifted
I wanna make you pay for all the shit you did
And I wanna see your tears, they give me cheer, they give me, uh

Really just 'cause I love you
Servin' up some sushi of my heart that you cut through
Gettin' retribution make me feel like your equal
Gettin' destitute, it was all good, now it's evil
Be your best self, yeah, I think you turned me into my worst one
I don't even know you when I see you in person

You don't even know you when you see you in person
The lights aren't workin'

In the night time
I play tryna keep my thoughts on the bright side
Sometimes I think that you left with my right mind
Who's gon' keep the light on when my bright side's gone?

Take it away, take it away, give it away

What can I say? I want reimbursement, you oughta pay
Said that revenge won't make me happy, how do they know?
I wanna try, get her up out me, can't let it go
I feel like you did a murder and skated
I wanna figure how I ever made you my favorite
I need to see you cryin' for me to feel elated
What happened? Now you hang out with some people you hated, you liar
I don't know you now and I guess that I never did
Here's an Oscar and an Emmy and our kids

Big imposter, I'm not ready to forgive
Smilin' and laughin', I should clap at the actin'
Got the lights off in my head, it's a darkness
I got big resentment locked up in this apartment
I got dreams of leavin' out of here in a starship
Done for, but my batteries are all in your junk drawer

In the night time
I play tryna keep my thoughts on the bright side
Sometimes I think that you left with my right mind
Who's gon' keep the light on when my bright side's gone?
