Lyrics

Intro - Whisper

Mm

Mm-hmm

They cut the lights

Verse 1

The lights died fast like the city lost its nerve

Every billboard heartbeat faded into a curve

Sirens choked out streets froze in their tracks

And the quiet hit harder than the panic attacks

People ran blind chasing shadows in the smoke

Every promise we built snapped clean like a spoke

Empty shelves cracked glass fists on the door

Humanity showed its teeth like we'd been here before

Pre-Chorus

In the silence I heard my own thoughts scream

Like the world finally woke from a half-dead dream

Chorus

Blackout the night swallowed everything

We learned what fear can bring

Blackout the world fell apart in a single spark

But even in the dark we found a beating heart

Verse 2

The towers stood empty no pulse in their veins

Every streetlight ghosted every system drained

Neighbors turned strangers strangers turned ghosts

And the worst of us rose up louder than most

But somewhere in the ruins a candle caught flame

A voice said we're broken but we're still the same

Hands reached out through the wreckage and ash

And the quiet became a promise we could finally grasp

Pre-Chorus

In the silence we heard each other breathe

Like the dark stripped away everything we didn't need

Chorus

Blackout the night swallowed everything

We learned what fear can bring

Blackout the world fell apart in a single spark

But even in the dark we found a beating heart

Bridge - Building

No more wires no more screens

Just the raw unfiltered human being

Chaos cracked us but didn't erase

The fire still burning in the human race

Drop - Roar

Blackout

Blackout

Blackout the night swallowed everything

Outro - Spoken to Scream

They thought the dark would make us small

But the dark just made us see through it all

We are the grid now untamed unplugged

Every heartbeat a generator

We learned to burn

We learned to burn
