When the Lights Go Out Lyrics
don't it hurt so bad
standing in the sun
in the bottom of your heart
you don't love no one
you can be oh so mean
i just can't see no in-between
you know what the sun's all about
when the lights go out
what a way to live
back of your class
end of the line
you're always last
you can be oh so mean
i just can't see no in-between
you know what the sun's all about
when the lights go out
see the moon
see the stars
from your lonely seat
in your lonely car
you can be oh so mean
i just can't see no in-between
you know what the sun's all about
when the lights go out
standing in the sun
in the bottom of your heart
you don't love no one
i just can't see no in-between
you know what the sun's all about
when the lights go out
back of your class
end of the line
you're always last
i just can't see no in-between
you know what the sun's all about
when the lights go out
see the stars
from your lonely seat
in your lonely car
i just can't see no in-between
you know what the sun's all about
when the lights go out

love it
yes! so glad i found this song! its gonna be on the Black Snake Moan movie, which looks amazing....
this song is freaking amazing
this song... is... so sexy.
and so good.
this song reminds me for some reason of "when the levee breaks" by led zeppelin
the drums are very much the same as when the levee breaks. almost sounds like they recorded it in the same way. one way or the other when you hear it you get intimidated by the absolutely MASSIVE sound of the drums. (that was my inital thought too)

what a badass song
def love this song and i heard it on black snake moan too i love the whole feel of that movie but i was wondering what the song was about, so i read the lyrics. I think: it's about somebody friendless or doesn't love anybody, and they're finding out what love is all about through its' absence. like this bitch can see how important it is to love somebody when she's all alone.
"you know what the sun's all about when the lights go out" i love that part!
GREAT SONG! feel like taking a few back and saying fuck it! lol
I love this song...I wish I could say so much, by saying so little. That is why I love the Black Keys.
