Santigold - Lights Out



Artist: Santigold
Track: Lights Out
Album: Santigold
Year: 2008

I distinctly remember walking around campus my first semester of college, listening to this song on repeat. I love the breathy vocals over a strong bass line with soft background harmonies. I also love the guitar riff in the chorus. It all just combines itself into an extremely catchy pop song and something about her voice makes it stand out a little to me.

LYRICS:

Lights out, shoot up the station
TV's dead, where's there to run?
Watch everybody come undone
Lights out, we'll make it easy
We'll make it fun
Won't let them see now, how they had won
Still I wait another round

Darling
Don't got to worry, you're locked in tight
Darling
Don't got to worry, turn out the light

Wiped out, no concentration
They got us basking in a storm
I watch it as it loses form
Wiped out, they could see me
That's what I want
A casualty but I am upfront
And I know what it's about

Darling
Don't got to worry, you're locked in tight
Darling
Don't got to worry, turn out the light

I'm still a shaking my head
The one you can't account for
I keep just one step ahead
There's no place to run

Darling
Don't got to worry, you're locked in tight
Darling
Don't got to worry, turn out the light

Darling
Don't got to worry, you're locked in tight
Darling
Don't got to worry, turn out the light

Darling
Don't got to worry, you're locked in tight
Darling
Don't got to worry, turn out the light
