When the Lights Go Out

When the lights go out And the house grows dark The black expands To every part The house soon becomes Just like the night As the darkness now fills In every sight The goings on cease And life soon stills As the mission becomes To find what will Will dispel the dark And bring in some sight To house that's been Devoid of light A candle is found And soon it is lit It dispels the dark Though barely a bit More are found They're lit and they start To chase the blackness From different parts A brilliant treasure Later is found A flashlight now on With light that abounds The search continues And unearthed a gas lamp Used when on hikes At night to camp Once turned on It's as bright as day And completely chases The darkness away But too little too late The powers comes back No more need to worry About the black
