[Intro]
Faders of the sun
Spilling through the blinds
Coffee going cold
Scrolling through my life
Same four ruined photos
Keep showing up in time
Like the past is on repeat
Stuck inside my mind (yeah)
[Verse 1]
You said
"We’re getting older"
Laughing on the floor
Takeout on the counter
Coats blocking the door
Now it’s plastic on the mattress
Boxes in the hall
I’m talking to the echo
Like you still might call
[Pre-Chorus]
How do I move on
When every street
Spells your name in signs above me
How do I let go
When every beat
Brings you back like you still want me
[Chorus]
We were lights in the blackout
Burning this whole town
Didn’t know the fall would hurt this loud
Now it’s just me in the comedown
Spinning on my own now
But I still feel you every time I hit the ground
(Oh) I keep crashing into memories
Like we’re still in that backseat
You’re a loop I can’t delete somehow
We were lights in the blackout
I’m still chasing that fallout
Every heartbeat just replays you now
[Verse 2]
Found your ticket in my pocket
From that August night
Storm sang on the windshield
You said
"We’ll be alright"
Funny how the small things
Grow heavy when they’re gone
I wear them like a backpack
Dragging through the dawn
[Pre-Chorus]
How do I move on
When every street
Spells your name in signs above me
How do I let go
When every beat
Brings you back like you still want me
[Chorus]
We were lights in the blackout
Burning this whole town
Didn’t know the fall would hurt this loud
Now it’s just me in the comedown
Spinning on my own now
But I still feel you every time I hit the ground
(Yeah) I keep crashing into memories
Like we’re still in that backseat
You’re a loop I can’t delete somehow
We were lights in the blackout
I’m still chasing that fallout
Every heartbeat just replays you now
[Bridge]
Maybe in some other version
We don’t learn the hard way
Maybe all our broken pieces
Draw a different staircase
If I ever see you dancing
Under someone else’s sky
I’ll still thank you for the moment
You taught me how to fly (fly, fly)
[Chorus]
We were lights in the blackout
Burning this whole town
Didn’t know the fall would hurt this loud
Now it’s just me in the comedown
Spinning on my own now
But I still feel you every time I hit the ground
(Oh) I keep crashing into memories
Like we’re still in that backseat
You’re a loop I can’t delete somehow
We were lights in the blackout
I’m still chasing that fallout
Every heartbeat just replays you now (you now)
[Chorus]
We were lights in the blackout
We were lights in the blackout
We were lights in the blackout (blackout)
Every heartbeat just replays you now
