grew up out in the desert
Where I learned to thrive alone
Lived in L.A. 'til it broke me
Oh, I rolled on like a stone
Found a girl and found a job
Just like they say good people do
But every now and then I turn to salt inside her wounds
Oh and all I know
Is we can't, we won't let go
Keeping the light on, the light on, ain't easy
Keeping the fight on, for so long, is hard to do
For all the times you feel the weight
There might just be a better way
Won't deny that it feels so hard
When the night gets so dark
Keep keeping the light on
And I'm trying to get better
Every day I chase the sun
And I pray it's worth the heartache when I'm done
Oh and all I know
Is we can't, we won't, let go
Keeping the light on, the light on, ain't easy
Keeping the fight on, for so long, is hard to do
For all the times you feel the weight
There might just be a better way
Won't deny that it feels so hard
When the night gets so dark
Keep keeping the light on
Keep keeping the light on
Try to give a little
Try to be a little
Try to see a light in the dark
Try to give a little
Try to be a little
Try to see a light in the dark
Try to give a little
Try to be a little
Try to see a light in the dark
Try to give a little
Try to be a little
Try to see a light in the dark
Oh, we can't, we won't, let go
Keeping the light on, the light on, ain't easy
Keeping the fight on, for so long, is hard to do
For all the times you feel the weight
There might just be a better way
Won't deny that it feels so hard
When the night gets so dark
Keep keeping the light on
Try to give a little
Try to be a little
Try to see a light in the dark
Oh-oh, oh
Try to give a little
Try to be a little
Try to see a light in the dark
Where I learned to thrive alone
Lived in L.A. 'til it broke me
Oh, I rolled on like a stone
Found a girl and found a job
Just like they say good people do
But every now and then I turn to salt inside her wounds
Oh and all I know
Is we can't, we won't let go
Keeping the light on, the light on, ain't easy
Keeping the fight on, for so long, is hard to do
For all the times you feel the weight
There might just be a better way
Won't deny that it feels so hard
When the night gets so dark
Keep keeping the light on
And I'm trying to get better
Every day I chase the sun
And I pray it's worth the heartache when I'm done
Oh and all I know

Keeping the light on, the light on, ain't easy
Keeping the fight on, for so long, is hard to do

Keep keeping the light on
Keep keeping the light on

Try to see a light in the dark
Try to give a little
Try to be a little
Try to see a light in the dark

Oh, we can't, we won't, let go

Try to see a light in the dark
Oh-oh, oh
Try to give a little
Try to be a little
Try to see a light in the dark

A little bubbly-pop-ish, but good lyrics. I'd happily listen to this sometimes.
thought it was new Dido for a sec...

Sure, I'll be first, and can say this artist is growing on me. This is a "6.5" for me, so will start with a 6 and see if it grows on me.
