Verse 1
Morning comes but I can’t feel the light
Curtains closed against the fight
Every clock just mocks my name
Every day feels just the same
Ashtray full of yesterday
Another promise thrown away
The mirror shows a hollow stare
Like nobody is living there
⸻
Pre-Chorus
Time keeps moving on
But I’m barely hanging on
⸻
Chorus
Blackout days and empty nights
Can’t remember where I lost the fight
Every dream fades into gray
Lost somewhere in blackout days
Blackout days and shattered sleep
Falling in a hole too deep
Every hope just slips away
Buried in these blackout days
⸻
Verse 2
Coffee cold beside the sink
Too exhausted just to think
Every thought becomes a storm
Every quiet feels like war
Bills piled high upon the floor
I don’t open doors anymore
The world outside keeps moving on
But inside me something’s gone
⸻
Pre-Chorus
Every step feels slow
But I don’t know where to go
⸻
Chorus
Blackout days and empty nights
Every shadow starts a fight
Every memory turns to haze
Drowning in these blackout days
Blackout days and broken sleep
Secrets that I try to keep
Every prayer begins to fade
Lost inside these blackout days
⸻
Verse 3
Streetlights bleeding through the blinds
Like a searchlight in my mind
Looking for the man I was
Before the silence swallowed love
Every photograph I see
Feels like someone else was me
Every smile from long ago
Feels like something I don’t know
⸻
Bridge (heavy emotional breakdown)
Maybe someday I’ll escape
This prison that my mind creates
Maybe somewhere down the line
I’ll finally recognize my mind
But tonight the darkness stays
Living through these blackout days
⸻
Breakdown (quiet grunge moment)
No sound but the ticking clock
No light behind the locked up thoughts
No sleep behind these tired eyes
Just endless nights and endless lies
⸻
Final Chorus (big ending)
Blackout days and endless rain
Every heartbeat echoes pain
But somewhere past this endless haze
There’s life beyond these blackout days
Blackout days but I still stand
Barely holding to the plan
Maybe hope will find its way
Through the dark of blackout days
⸻
Outro
Morning waits beyond the gray
Past the wreckage of today
Maybe someday I’ll escape
The shadow of these blackout days.
