"Blackout" lyrics
Wake me up when the light's back on
They still dance, but the sound is gone
So I roam the streets for saviours
To turn night into day
I hear echoes of their voices
Mother's so far away
Power out!
System down!
Courage, don't fail me now
Light me up
Show me how
To survive when all I see is the blackout
Power's down, but the show goes on
Crowds disperse to await the sun
But I'm trapped with my reflection
In the last dying light
Standing at the intersection
Do I flee? Do I fight?
Power out!
System down!
Courage don't fail me now
Light me up
Show me how
To survive when I can't see
It's a losing fight
When the world's not right
And I feel just like I'm falling
There's a distant light
Almost out of sight
And I see a night with no end
Have I lost my will to care?
Power out!
System down!
Courage don't fail me now
Light me up
Show me how
To survive when I can't see
Lights fade in as the clock strikes 12
Cheers ring out, I embrace myself
They still dance, but the sound is gone
So I roam the streets for saviours
To turn night into day
I hear echoes of their voices
Mother's so far away
Power out!
System down!
Courage, don't fail me now
Light me up
Show me how
To survive when all I see is the blackout
Power's down, but the show goes on
Crowds disperse to await the sun
But I'm trapped with my reflection
In the last dying light
Standing at the intersection
Do I flee? Do I fight?
Power out!
System down!
Courage don't fail me now
Light me up
Show me how
To survive when I can't see
It's a losing fight
When the world's not right
And I feel just like I'm falling
There's a distant light
Almost out of sight
And I see a night with no end
Have I lost my will to care?
Power out!
System down!
Courage don't fail me now
Light me up
Show me how
To survive when I can't see
Lights fade in as the clock strikes 12
Cheers ring out, I embrace myself
