Power Out (Acoustic Version) Lyrics

The power went out

I was alone

Everything died

It was suddenly cold

In a place where it shouldn't be

I waited it out

The choice had been mine

But something will twist

In the absence of light

In a room you've never not been able to see

I didn't mean to do it like I did

Ooh

And I underestimated

You

I think that I know

How we ended up there

Don't know if you saw me

But I loved how you stared

And all of the jokes that you made

Gathered the parts

Of my broken form

Contorted myself

To the shape of your arms

And for the first time in a while I was more or less okay

I know you didn't mean to change me like you did

Ooh

And it's not fair of me to blame you for the things I hid

But some days I do

I could have broken your nose that day

You called me over to call me selfish and tell me to go away

There was no right thing to say

But I was trying

I know you didn't mean to lose it like you did

Ooh

Even then it was complicated

The only afternoon I ever hated you

You didn't mean to change me like you did

But I always knew

Exactly what you wanted
