Lights Out

(album: Gang Rags - 2010)

The sun went black, lights out (I swear to God, I couldn't see my fucking hand in front of my face), lights out
The sun went black, lights out (I swear to God, I couldn't see my fucking hand in front of my face), lights out
The sun went black, lights out (I swear to God, I couldn't see my fucking hand in front of my face), lights out
The sun went black, lights out (I swear to God, I couldn't see my fucking hand in front of my face), lights out

I opened up my eyeballs to the strangest thing
No fucking sunshiny day, no lovely birdies that sing
Pitch dark is my room, in fact, they're usually dark
I'm laying here so quietly, I can hear my heart
So fucking black is the night, but yet I'm still awake
My alarm clock says eleven, this must be a mistake, but wait
So does the TV, now I'm looking outside
The dawn of a new day must have opened denies
Some people out on they lawn, some people standing on they porches
Staring up into the sky, some carry torches
The feeling is so uneasy as if the masses are nervous
What happened? Why is the sun not providing the service?

The sun went black, lights out (I swear to God, I couldn't see my fucking hand in front of my face), lights out (Sun never came)
The sun went black, lights out (I swear to God, I couldn't see my fucking hand in front of my face), lights out (And the moon became everything)
The sun went black, lights out (I swear to God, I couldn't see my fucking hand in front of my face), lights out (Sun never came)
The sun went black, lights out (I swear to God, I couldn't see my fucking hand in front of my face), lights out (And the moon became everything)

Mad people ran off to church at 7:30 this morning
Because at 7:21, there wasn't any sun
And people wanna know what the fuck is going on
Shit, I for one, motherfucker
I'm out here seeing firetrucks, cars, and ambulances
Racing all around the town, no doubt they looking for answers
Nobody know that this is it or if there's still second chances
I'm standing in my driveway, watching as the dark advances
Storm alarm sounds, gunshots, the panic is spreading
I never thought the world would end like this, a dark armageddon
But that seems to be the case with the devil's face in the sky
Where did the warm light go and why?

The sun went black, lights out (I swear to God, I couldn't see my fucking hand in front of my face), lights out (The sun never came)
The sun went black, lights out (I swear to God, I couldn't see my fucking hand in front of my face), lights out (And the moon became everything)

The temperature is steady falling, streetlights are gone
They cut off around the time is supposed to be on
But still, I don't hear any birds, but these wolves are tripping
People trying to deal with drama getting high and sipping
Looters loot, cops walking off they job like "Fuck this!"
Lunacy is spreading, strangers fucking, dudes beating up chicks
2:37 PM, cop car goes riding on fire
It all comes down to this life as we know it retires
We are the chosen few, living through the moon days
Which has become the new sun, living under moon rays
Life has a pale skin, nocturnal [?]
It'd probably burn us alive if the sun came back
