U2 - The Blackout

Got a star
wonders why it’s still off the Earth
a meteor promises it’s not gonna hurt

earthquake, always happen when you’re in bed , Fred
The house shakes
maybe was it something I said, Ned

go easy on me
easy on me lover
go easy on me
easy on me now

When the lights go out
it’s all you talk about
In the darkness where we learn to see
when the lights go down
don’t you ever doubt
the light that we can really be

statues fall
democracy
is flat on its back, Jack
We had it all
and what we had is not coming back, Zack
A big mouth says the people
they don’t wanna be free
for free

the blackout is this an extinction
even we see

go easy on me
easy on me lover
go easy on me
easy on me now

When the lights go out
it’s all you talk about
In the darkness where we learn to see
when the lights go down
don’t you ever doubt
the light that we can really be

When the lights go out /5x

blackout it’s clear
who you are will appear
blackout
no fear
so glad that we are all still here
When the lights go out /3x

When the lights go out
it’s all you talk about
In the darkness where we learn to see
when the lights go down
don’t you ever doubt
the light that we can really be
