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

But they're 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
