Premium Member Our World Shuts Down

Does anyone really know how much we rely
On the electrical power system to survive
Lose it for ten minutes and our world shuts down
When everyday services we're deprived

It's the one service we need more than any other
Panic sets in immediately when denied
Some people want to end it all
It'll be restored it's only a matter of time
