Like a cloud Ushered in by wind You were just a reaction to my confusion A hybrid of hundreds of troubles People felt us connect and ran for shelter And there are blackouts in L.A. tonight There's an evident lack of light tonight An increase in desire You'll catch me Hanging out on a wire Cutting the voltage to your power line (And the lights go out) Like a love Ushered in by bliss You came to me like a realization But your look could sharpen a knife Now all I hear is tearing of paper And there are blackouts in L.A. tonight An evident lack of light tonight An increase in desire You'll catch me Hanging out on a wire Cutting the voltage to your power line (And the lights go out) Now you Cannot affect me I feel No electricity Now you Cannot control me I feel No electricity (And the lights go out) And there are blackouts in L.A. tonight There's an evident lack of light tonight An increase in desire You'll catch me Hanging out on a wire Cutting the voltage to your power line (And the lights go out)
