Lights Out Lyrics

There was a black-out in my heart in the summer of '03
I was walking over bridges
Tryin' to find my way to me
When the power was restored
I can't describe the damage done
This would be the first time
And no, it wasn't fun

All these aging hipsters with another axe to grind
So put me on the battlefield where hardcore goes to die

Can I get a hell yeah
(If you're as lost as I am)
Yeah dawg
(If you hate that expression)
Doggin' on others is now my profession
Since you blew the lights out in my heart

I'm feeling kinda bored so let's go charge up the car
Let's all put on those trucker hats
And head out to a bar
We'll end up at the Standard in the bathroom doin' coke
This is very Hollywood
And yeah, I get the joke

Everything tastes better when the novacaine sets in
So have a second helping of the ones you call your friends

Can I get a hell yeah
(If you're as lost as I am)
Yeah dawg
(If you hate that expression)
Doggin' on others is now my profession
Since you blew the lights out in my heart

Why don't you all f-f-f-fade away?

Vodka rhymes with lotsa
Bourbon rhymes with hurtin'
These are things I'm gonna feel
This much I know is certain

Can I get a hell yeah
(If you're as lost as I am)
Yeah dawg
(If you hate that expression)
Doggin' on others is now my profession
Since you blew the lights out in my heart

Awesome song - it's about Ashton Kutcher.

LOL@ASTROIK. xD

Anyways, I'm pretty sure the lyrics are:

Burnin' rhymes with hurtin'

Not,

Bourbon rhymes with hurtin'

To me the song just seems to be about getting over you're ex while having a good time. Just kind of forgetting about the ex, and moving on.

No, the line is "Bourbon rhymes with hurtin'." It goes along with the Vodka rhymes with lotsa, it's pretty much just about him drinking his sorrow away.

I think this song is about him getting broken up with. But I don't think he has a good time afterward. He just kind of becomes a sad jerk, hence "Doggin' on others is now my profession // Since you blew the lights out in my heart."
