Comes the night 
 comes the cold 
 comes the face 
 of the one I love 
    I see the birds 
 upon the rock 
 the crows that knew 
 your name and came on time   
 LIGHTS OUT 
 LIGHTS OUT 
 LIGHTS OUT 
 LIGHTS OUT   
 I see your eyes 
 we held your hands 
 What did you think 
 about until the angels came   
 Birds that love you know 
 what you know now 
 Could I have stopped them 
 from holding you down   
 LIGHTS OUT 
 LIGHTS OUT 
 LIGHTS OUT 
 LIGHTS OUT   
 Friends and lovers 
 the night draws near 
 your eyes don't fool her 
 who knows your fear   
 Birds of death 
 I've seen you all before 
 Birds of love cry 
 "This is yours no more!"   
 LIGHTS OUT 
 LIGHTS OUT 
 LIGHTS O UT 
 LIGHTS OUT   
 What is the answer to the waste of 10,000 days? 
 Your soul is now my destination 
 until the blackbirds come.
