Alkaline Trio - Blackout

Don't you ask me to come out


When the sun does shine


Let us stay here with curtains drawn


In darkness you'll be mine





Let's wait for the blackout


The light is too bright


Let's wait for the blackout


Wait for the night





Well welcome to my basement flat


No windows to see through


When darkness falls again, my friend


We'll both know what to do





Let's wait for the blackout


The light is too bright


Let's wait for the blackout


Wait for the night





Come walk with me upon the earth


That keeps us both alive


No living thing has lasted here


Yet we can both survive





Let's wait for the blackout


The light is too bright


Let's wait for the blackout


Wait for the night





In darkness there is no sin


Light only brings in fear


Nothing to corrupt the eyes


There is no vision here


At first you may find it strange


But please don't go away


There's power in the nighttime


That you won't find in the day





There is no vision here


There is no vision here
