Got a star, wonders why it's still off the earth, yeah...

A meteor, promises it's not gonna hurt, yeah...

Earthquake, always happen when you're in bed, fred

The house shakes, maybe was it something I said, ned.

Go, easy on me, easy me, lover

Go, easy on me, easy on me now.

When the lights go out, it's all you talk about

In the darkness where we learn to see

When the lights go out, don't you ever doubt

The light that we can really be.

Statues fall, democracy is flat on its back, jack

We had it all, and what we had is not coming back, zack

A big mouth says the people, they don't wanna be free for free

The blackout, is this an extinction event we see.

Go, easy on me, easy on me, lover

Go, easy on me, easy on me, now.

When the lights go out, it's all you talk about

In the darkness where we learn to see

When the lights go out, don't you ever doubt

The light that we can really be.

When the lights go out

When the lights go out

When the lights go out

When the lights go out

When the lights go out.

Blackout, it's clear, who you are will appear

Blackout, no fear, so glad that we are all still here.

When the lights go out

When the lights go out

When the lights go out.

When the lights go out, it's all you talk about

In the darkness where we learn to see

When the lights go out, don't you ever doubt

The light that we can really be.

When the lights go out

When the lights go out

When the lights go out

When the lights go out

When the lights go out.
