Ron Hawkins - Kill the Lights

I'm drowning in my thirteenth drink
Stranded in this place all night
And down into my stool I'll sink
A lighthouse without a light
So forgive me Thomas Edison
But there ain't no ship in sight
I'm taking my medicine
So, kill the light

We love at the speed of sound
But we murder at the speed of light
And we panic when it all comes down
We blast off into the night
And the universe whispers in your ear
All the stars and the satellites
"There's nowhere but down from here"
So, kill the lights

So believe me when I say it's true
This big brotherly advice
Before the darkness creeps up on you
Kill the lights
