[Verse 1]
Smoke clouds have thickened to black out the stars
The night sky is lit now by headlights of cars
And the moon holds no purpose
But pulling the tides anymore
[Verse 2]
Blow out the candles
Blow out the candles
Throw on the light switch and bask in the fluorescent glow
We're guided by satellites
We don't need stars anymore, can't see stars anymore
[Chorus 1]
With a nine on the bortle, we've blown out the stars
Smashed all the lanterns to burn down the barns
And with less than one hundredth in sight to guide us home after dark
We're lost
[Verse 3]
The streetlights have killed them
The streetlights have killed them
We've laid to rest gods in a tomb born of city lights
And out in the flatlands, we thought that we'd found them
But still, the horizon did glow like a brush fire
Smoke clouds have thickened to black out the stars
The night sky is lit now by headlights of cars
And the moon holds no purpose
But pulling the tides anymore
[Verse 2]
Blow out the candles
Blow out the candles
Throw on the light switch and bask in the fluorescent glow
We're guided by satellites
We don't need stars anymore, can't see stars anymore
[Chorus 1]
With a nine on the bortle, we've blown out the stars
Smashed all the lanterns to burn down the barns
And with less than one hundredth in sight to guide us home after dark
We're lost
[Verse 3]
The streetlights have killed them
The streetlights have killed them
We've laid to rest gods in a tomb born of city lights
And out in the flatlands, we thought that we'd found them
But still, the horizon did glow like a brush fire
