Like a cloud ushered in by wind You were just a reaction to my confusion A hybrid of hundreds of troubles People felt us connect and ran for shelter
And there are blackouts in L.A. tonight There's an evident lack of light tonight An increase in desire You'll catch me hanging out on a wire Cutting the voltage to your power line (And the lights go out)
Like a love ushered in by bliss You came to me like a realization But your look could sharpen a knife Now all I hear is tearing of paper
And there are blackouts in L.A. tonight An evident lack of light tonight An increase in desire You'll catch me hanging out on a wire Cutting the voltage to your power line (And the lights go out)
Now you cannot affect me I feel no electricity Now you cannot control me I feel no electricity
(And the lights go out) And there are blackouts in L.A. tonight There's an evident lack of light tonight An increase in desire You'll catch me hanging out on a wire Cutting the voltage to your power line (And the lights go out)
It's a little too easy to live and learn But those breaks are scarce So take some time out to look back and see how you fared
The right is always the wrong and the short's always the long The hardest thing about refrain is now I can only save face
To deny yourself is so true to form You spend most of your days wishing you were never born To deny yourself is so true to form You spend most of your days wishing you were never born
Face down in what you know you'll never come up for air Close the door I've had about as much as I can bear
The right is always the wrong and the short's always the long The hardest thing about refrain is now I can only save face
To deny yourself is so true to form You spend most of your days wishing you were never born To deny yourself is so true to form You spend most of your days wishing you were never born
