American Blackout by Alisabeth Von Presley Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I walk the wire like a lioness stalking her prey
No hesitation
We are the kings and the queens and we’re heading
To our inauguration
So grab my hand, move along if you’re ready to change
The situation
And just believe, deep inside, that the spark will ignite
I’ve lost my patience
Here we go
[Chorus]
We’re on our way now
They're on the way down
This is our playground
And I can teach you how to shine in the blackout
We’re on our way now
They're on the way down
This is our playground
And I can teach you how to shine in the blackout
[Post-Chorus]
You know I got the-
Hell yeah, I got the-
[Verse 2]
I stoke the fire with a glance, just a flick of the wrist
In their direction
It all comes down back around to who's wearing the crown
In this election
Don’t take a side, pick a fight everybody can see
The failed connection
Just make it loud, make it proud, make it visible now
It’s your protection
Here we go
[Chorus]
We’re on our way now
They're on the way down
This is our playground
And I can teach you how to shine in the blackout
We’re on our way now
They're on the way down
This is our playground
And I can teach you how to shine in the blackout
[Post-Chorus]
You know I got the-
Hell yeah, I got the-
[Instrumental]
[Breakdown]
Don’t pass it by, your moment of greatness
You have the strength to burn and erase them
Into the past, where memory fades it
It's your turn to shine in the blackout
[Chorus]
We’re on our way now
(Don’t pass it by, your moment of greatness)
They're on the way down
(You have the strength to burn and erase them)
This is our playground
(Into the past, where memory fades it)
And I can teach you how to shine in the blackout
We’re on our way now
(Don’t pass it by, your moment of greatness)
They're on the way down
(You have the strength to burn and erase them)
This is our playground
(Into the past, where memory fades it)
And I can teach you how to shine in the blackout
I walk the wire like a lioness stalking her prey
No hesitation
We are the kings and the queens and we’re heading
To our inauguration
So grab my hand, move along if you’re ready to change
The situation
And just believe, deep inside, that the spark will ignite
I’ve lost my patience
Here we go
[Chorus]
We’re on our way now
They're on the way down
This is our playground
And I can teach you how to shine in the blackout
We’re on our way now
They're on the way down
This is our playground
And I can teach you how to shine in the blackout
[Post-Chorus]
You know I got the-
Hell yeah, I got the-
[Verse 2]

And I can teach you how to shine in the blackout
We’re on our way now
They're on the way down

And I can teach you how to shine in the blackout
