When you chew my ear off, try and let me know
You will never get another piece of me
Cause in a New York blackout, things go kinda slow
And you miss the things you never thought you`d see
There`s still so many things I want to be
Sometimes I just don`t even want to sleep
In a New York blackout, it`s so hard to see
All the angels that are looking after me
The lies bounce off the water in your eyes
And the dead lift their heads and come alive
And I may never escape this darkened city
But still I`m trying to find you in this blackout
Where it`s warm inside and always open late
And the doors to hell look just like heaven`s gate
And you never know what`s going on inside
`Til you step out in the cold and seal your fate
And you might just stop in and say hello
But you`ve got much more important places to go
Make sure you let everybody know
That I may never enlight this darkened city
Still i`m trying to find you in this blackout
In a New York blackout, you might think I`m gone
But I`ll wake up on the front steps of your door
