[Verse 1]
The power's out, it's not coming on
The only light comes down like a bolt from above
At times I fear that all I can do is watch
And let myself just slowly fade away
[Verse 2]
Stepping out of the blue light, there's a shadow on the ground
My wheel of fortune keeps hurling me round
Lead me with my heart, please show me the way
Place me like flowers on a grave, carry me
[Verse 3]
Walls come up, rain comes down
I let it flow sometimes, when time's right, when I feel right
I turned it upside out, I can turn it inside
Embrace duality, fall before you can fly
[Outro]
The power's out, it's not coming on
The only light comes down like a bolt from above

This song comes from a sense of clarity in a dark time. It is meant to be a grounding anthem of growth and an encouragement to love and accept ourselves entirely — knowing that can be kinda hard sometimes!
