Now and on Earth - Blacked Out lyrics

[Verse 1] We were such strange creatures, burning such a fever Eager for that ether and smiling into seizures We were both believers, we were big dreamers The weight of this old cleaver ​ Made us grown meaner [Pre-Chorus] All my clocks move in erratic beats The clicks, the clicks, the clicks The rhythm's rising bleak There's only vertigo from these huge heights Only blinded eyes from these bright lights That's how I know we are [Chorus] Blacked out backed out and broken down Steady as the sun, running straight into the ground Cut up caught up coughing up a lung Brightened blaze and these flames weigh a ton Can't ignore the buzzing Can't turn down the sounds Can't soothe the stinging Can't dry out the drowned [Verse 2] Every minute forward is another into forever But time heals nothing, moments serve to sever Remembering December, all the pressure Your displeasure, your displeasure The flowers are still wilted, blossoms dried up and died Tattered letters received and unsent Tracing arcs, rise and descent Dissent, discontent; changes underwent First impressions worn to dust; we both misrepresent The rain turned into steam, our stitching frayed at the seams They always say that hope floats, but ours washed away downstream What are memories on lonely nights? Where is the comfort, in unyielding spite? [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] [Bridge] We watch the lightning break as we go down There's nothing here for us now There's for nothing, there's nothing [Chorus]
