In a Black Out

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
