Turn Off The Lights Lyrics

[Intro]
(Turn off the lights)

[Verse 1]
Out here in the space between
You had no sense of home
Been hard to keep your sanity
With the world you used to know

[Pre-Chorus]
Just been stayin' alive
Not been livin' right
Hangin' on the wire
Let 'em change your fate
Seen the other side
Mirage of your life
Skippin' through the night
Know I'll guide the way

[Chorus]
So, baby, turn off the lights
And stare at the stars
They could be yours right now
Could be yours right now
Turn off the lights
We'll see in the dark
It could be yours right now
Could be yours right now
[Post-Chorus]
Turn off the lights, turn off the
Turn off the lights, turn off the
Turn off the lights, wе're
Comin' alive, comin' alive
Turn off thе lights, turn off the
Turn off the lights, turn off the
Turn off the lights, we're
Comin' alive, comin' alive

[Verse 2]
A paradise that they can't see
A world behind the cries
Lost up in infinity
Euphoria's in your eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
Just been stayin' alive
Not been livin' right
Hangin' on the wire
Let 'em change your fate
Seen the other side
Mirage of your life
Skippin' through the night
Know I'll guide the way
[Chorus]
So, baby, turn off the lights
And stare at the stars
They could be yours right now
Could be yours right now
Turn off the lights
We'll see in the dark
It could be yours right now
Could be yours right now

[Post-Chorus]
Turn off the lights, turn off the
Turn off the lights, turn off the
Turn off the lights, we're
Comin' alive, comin' alive
Turn off the lights, turn off the
Turn off the lights, turn off the
Turn off the lights, we're
Comin' alive, comin' alive

[Outro]
(Turn off the lights)
(Turn off the lights)

What did Ava Max say about "Turn Off The Lights"?
Genius Answer

According to my niece, ‘Turn Off the Lights’ should’ve come before ‘In the Dark’, but I really think I just wanted to end it more disco towards the end. I was thinking sonically. I wanted a dance record with no meaning behind it. I am so sick of writing break-up records with this album. I just wanted to close my eyes and dance.
