I'm falling down again And I'm coming 'around Is everything alright? In this city of no lights I blocked out the stars again And I shut down the night 'Cause I don't feel alright In this city of no lights Well you... Don't believe in love, 'Cause it's just an abbreviation And I ... Don't believe in fate, 'cause it left me here Turn up the night In a blackout state You ain't shining bright In a blackout state Hidin' scars on tattooed arms Hidin' hurt with drunken charm – it ain't fate It's your blackout states Blackout states Called out my man again - 3rd time tonight But I just can't get it right In this city of no lights The kids are heading home But I got one more shot for the road And I'm staying out tonight In this city of no lights Well you... Don't believe in love, 'Cause it's just an abbreviation And I ... Don't believe in fate, 'cause it left me here Turn up the night In a blackout state You ain't shining bright In a blackout state Hidin' scars on tattooed arms Hidin' hurt with drunken charm – it ain't fate It's your blackout states Burning dusty drags, licking plastic bags Shadows fading fast in this empty sphere Turn up the night In a blackout state You ain't shining bright In a blackout state Hidin' scars on tattooed arms Hidin' hurt with drunken charm – it ain't fate It's your blackout states It's your blackout states It's your blackout states
