Experienced a blackout due to an ice storm for a few days. Perfect time to write music!
Lying in my bed alone
Staring at my ceiling
There's a flash of light
Then blackout
Didn't want to watch TV till the
Option's taken from me
Now I can't stop
Need Internet
What do you do when the power's out?
I sorta wanna scream and shout
I rely on Google far too much
Levitating reality's touch
As I'm working on this song think I
Got the key signature wrong
But I can't check
No internet yet
Socials slowly morph my brain
Attention span, instant gains
Do you feel it too?
The web changing you?
What do you do when the power's out?
I sorta wanna scream and shout
I rely on Google far too much
Levitating reality's touch
One thing's for sure
Guitars don't need the internet to work
One thing's for sure
Guitars don't need the internet to work
What do you do when the power's out?
I sorta wanna scream and shout
I rely on Google far too much
Levitating reality's touch
These are my blackout thoughts (one thing's for sure) (it's icy so icy)
These are my blackout thought (guitars don't need the internet to work) (it's icy so icy)
These are my blackout thoughts (one thing's for sure) (it's icy so icy)
These are my blackout thoughts

It's funny how we don't think about how much we depend on electricity - until we don't have it! Thankful for acoustic instruments, but as your lyrics show, it can be very frustrating!
I suspect this song was very cathartic to write and record!
