I woke up with the power out, not really somethin to shout about. ice
has covered up my parents hands, don´t have any dreams don´t have any
plans. i went out into the night, i went out to find some light. kids
are swingin from the power lines, nobody´s home so nobody minds
i woke up on the darkest night, neighbors all were shouting that they
found the light - "we found the light." - shadows jumpin´ all over my
walls, some of them big, some of them small. i went out into the night
i went out to pick a fight with anyone. light a candle for the kids,
jesus christ don´t keep it hid!
ice has covered up my parents eyes, don´t know how to see, don´t know
how to cry. growin´ up in some strange storm, nobody´s cold, nobody´s
warm. i went out into the night, i went out to find some light. kids
are dyin´ out in the snow, look at them go - look at them go!
and the power´s out in the heart of man, take it from your heart put
it in your hand. what´s the plan? what´s the plan? is it a dream? is
it a lie? i think i´ll let you deceide. just light a candle for the
kids, jesus christ don´t keep it hid! cause nothing´s hid, from us
kids! you ain´t foolin´ nobody - with the lights out! and the power´s
out in the heart of man, take it from your heart put it in your hand.
and there´s something wrong in the heart of man, you take it from your
heart and put it in your hand! where´d you go?!
