The last lights on

I am alone for all have gone
Not long before, this house was bright
Now mine are but the last lights on

I thought conversing would go on
The talking here felt safe and right
But I'm alone for all have gone

Rare am I the last to yawn
But something's different here tonight
For mine are but the last lights on

Good company, the night does pawn
So for distraction, this I write
'Cause I'm alone and all have gone

Yet a busy mind will still dwell on
Whatever dark things that it might
When mine are but the last lights on

Now all the curtains have been drawn
Though in my head's a blinding light
When I'm alone for all have gone
And mine are still the last lights on
