Lights Out

[Verse 1]
The corner shop is cleaner than it used to be
I had to ask if the till had moved
They've built so many houses
And the park is all wrong, too shiny and new
I remember when it first burned down

[Verse 2]
So here we are now
Walking through the town
I used to know like the back of my hand
But someone's gone through and moved things
So everything's slightly out of place
Only just enough for me to notice
But enough for it to feel different

[Chorus 1]
And when the lights go out
When thе lights go out
When the lights go out
We can see what we can never ever be again
Still we will remember when

[Verse 3]
And I hate that they changed the door
And the drive is too neat
How dare they change my home?
None of the plants are there anymore, and the garden
Where I played that one summer day no longer exists
They've even changed the windowframes

[Verse 4]
And everybody knows we die
And everybody has to leave
And everyone and time moves on
But I did not account for trees

I guess I like the purity
Immortalised in my memory, untouchable
And Fireflies was playing in the hall

[Chorus 2]
And when the lights go out
When the lights go out
When the lights go out
We can see what we can never ever be again
Still we will remember when

[Bridge]
Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh
Whoa-oh
In a place that still exists inside my mind

[Chorus 3]
And when the lights go out
When the lights go out
When the lights go out
We can see what we have lost and
There's a voice inside my head but still
There's no-one else around
The movement is so free
But it's such a sad sound

[Outro]
The movement is so free
But it's such a sad sound
The movement is so free
But it's such a sad sound
The movement is so free
But it's such a sad sound
The trees outside the house have even grown
