The power went out on April 22, 2005, and no one knew what to do without their computers.

The world turns round
Time flows
The sound of a million automatons all bustling around
I’ve found a peace of mind
I live in my time
And I’ve got no one to answer to now

How about you–what can you do
When you find that the power’s all gone out

You pause your life
Awash in strife
Unplugged, you don’t know what to do
And nothing seems right
Alone I’m caught
With notes and thoughts
So I’ll strum these chords
Cause music is all that I’ve got

Well, that’s now true–cause I’ve got you
Your breath’s enough when the power all goes out

We make our lists
And run the risk of running out of time
To live life in your lifetime or mine
Can’t hit rewind
Or fix my mind
My thoughts need shelter
And there’s nowhere to hide

But I’ll be fine, cause I see your eyes
And you still love me when the power all goes out

Don’t have to live life like you’re all alone in the dark
Use my arm as your pillow
Close your eyes and throw concerns to the sharks

Pull up that sheet and kiss my cheek
And I’ll forget that the power’s all gone out
