  • When the lights go out and the mercury rises
    Angels fall to the other side
    Fear meets lust just us colliding
    When the lights go out we own the night

    Blood red pumps up against your body
    Beating like drums sucked in the fire
    Wrong feels right don't try to fight it
    'Cause the night dissolves into desire

    When the light go out the walls come down
    We sound just like animals
    Inhibitions lost and lines get crossed
    You get me off when the lights go out

    Now I lay you down but no ones sleeping
    Now I lay you down here in the dark

    Lights go out to shouts and screaming
    No one gets out without a scar

    When the lights go out the walls come down
    We sound just like animals
    Inhibitions lost and lines get crossed
    You get me off when the lights go out

    I can feel it coming
    Feel your body humming
    Pushing buttons when the lights go, lights go

    I can feel it coming
    Feel your body humming
    Self destructing when the lights go, lights go

    When the lights go out the walls come down
    We sound just like animals
    Inhibitions lost and lines get crossed
    You get me off when the lights go

    When the lights go out the walls come down
    We sound just like animals
    Inhibitions lost and lines get crossed
    You get me off when the lights go out
    When the lights go out Writer/s: JOHNNY ANDREWS, RICH WARD
