The death of a dream, left us in flames
Reality got us again
Smoke filled the sky, I can't seem to see
Our Paradise shattered for me
[Chorus:]
We have become disconnected from ourselves
Blackout blackout
We're taking down an empire
Blackout blackout
We're building on a caldera
Blackout
We're taking down an empire
Blackout blackout
We're building on a caldera
Blackout
This cul-de-sac descent of man
Morality left us again.
I smell the fire, dust in the breeze
Arcadia, just out of reach
[Chorus:]
We have become disconnected from ourselves
Blackout blackout
We're taking down an empire
Blackout blackout
We're building on a caldera
Blackout
We're taking down an empire
Blackout blackout
We're building on a caldera
Blackout
