lyrics

Reaching up
The trees escape the last gasp of winter
Locking down
The streets deserted in the morning sun
On the train
The people sat around quiet and pensive
Arriving back
The blackout has now begun

(Chorus)
Was it all just wilful ignorance?
Did you feel that the gamble paid off?
Careering through
Pretending that you knew what to do
But really you were scared and lost

Groundhog day
Waking up its all the same again
Same old room
Everyone locked in and tightly controlled
Sun goes down
Wave goodbye to the last summer’s day
Passed us by
The blackout has taken hold

(Bridge)
Oh, finally we get some air
Oh, finally see our friends
But it’s not the end

Returning back
Paranoia and conspiracy
Backing in
The second time of asking for the chains
Shorter days
The nights and weather turned to closing in
Dug in deep
The blackout has begun again
