Lyrics
In a Black Out
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I live in a nameless town
No need to wander around
I live in a nameless town
In a black out
Many friends have said goodbye
Pouring it out in one proud line
I say they all just lost their minds
Midnight where we used to dance
Underneath the ugly halogen lamps
How it all went away so fast
In a black out
We'll wait for the year
When the time comes
Rolling over the rails
From here 'til the end
Of the island
Washing away
I live with myself with all our stuff
When you come home I'd lift you up
And there's only my troubles
In a black out
Now you're sleeping in the back
Of a speeding yellow cab
Raw kiss goodbye to more or less
