[Intro - immediate heavy distorted electric guitar riff, no atmospheric intro, full drums enter after two bars] [Male Vocals - aggressive rhythmic rap] POWER'S OUT. Whole fucking street went black at once, TV dies, fridge stops, everything gone, look through the window, every house is dead, then somebody screams three doors ahead. [Male Vocals - rapid rap] Phone still works. No outage shown. Neighbors outside? Nobody home. Then number forty-eight lights up bright— one second. Living room. Something inside. [Male Vocals - tense] Lights go out. [Heavy guitar riff] [Female Vocals - rhythmic rap] What did you see? Don't know. Too tall. Too thin. Standing completely still. House forty-eight stays black. Then forty-six flashes. [Female Vocals - tense] Same shape. Different house. [Female Vocals - quiet] Closer. [Male + Female Vocals - heavy chorus] BLACKOUT! KILL THE LIGHT! SOMETHING'S MOVING WHEN IT'S OUT OF SIGHT! BLACKOUT! HOUSE BY HOUSE! EVERY TIME THE POWER HITS— [Female Vocals - shouted] IT'S CLOSER TO OUR FUCKING HOUSE! [Instrumental - aggressive guitar riff] [Male Vocals - rapid rap] Forty-four! Flash! There! Forty-two! Flash! Same fucking stare! Forty! Thirty-eight! Moving down the line! [Male Vocals - shout-rap] IT NEVER WALKS! NEVER FUCKING RUNS! LIGHTS COME BACK AND THE MOVING'S ALREADY DONE! ONE SECOND HERE! NEXT FLASH GONE! [Male Vocals - shouted] HOW THE FUCK IS IT MOVING THAT FAST?! [Female Vocals - aggressive rap] Get every flashlight. Phones too. Kitchen drawer. Candles? No. If it moves in darkness, we keep this place bright. Simple. [Female Vocals - tense] Then my flashlight flickers. [Female Vocals - shouted] ...FUCK. [Heavy riff] [Female Vocals - rapid shout-rap] BATTERIES! NOW! GET EVERY PACK! PHONE AT THIRTY! DON'T LET THE SCREEN GO BLACK! PORCH LIGHT FLASHES! HOUSE THIRTY-FOUR! [Female Vocals - screamed] IT'S NOT INSIDE ANYMORE! [Male Vocals - tense] Where is it? [Female Vocals - quiet] Front yard. [Breakdown - crushing guitar riff] [Male Vocals - furious shout-rap] LOCK THE WINDOWS! LOCK THE DOOR! PILE EVERY FUCKING LAMP ON THE FLOOR! CAR HEADLIGHTS! POINT THEM OUT! TURN THIS WHOLE FUCKING HOUSE INTO A LIGHTHOUSE NOW! [Male Vocals - rapid shout-rap] THIRTY-TWO! THIRTY! TWENTY-EIGHT! EVERY FLASH PUTS THAT FUCKER CLOSER TO THE GATE! TWENTY-SIX! TWENTY-FOUR! [Male Vocals - screamed] WHY'S IT SKIPPING HOUSES NOW?! [Female Vocals - shouted] BECAUSE IT KNOWS WHERE WE ARE! [Instrumental stop] [Female Vocals - tense] Everything comes back on. Streetlights. Houses. TV. Kitchen. [Female Vocals - quiet] Gone. [Male Vocals - relieved] Power's back. [Female Vocals] Don't. [Male Vocals] What? [Female Vocals - tense] Don't assume that means we're safe. [Male Vocals - quiet] Fair. [Heavy guitar riff returns] [Male Vocals - rhythmic rap] Five minutes pass. Nothing outside. Neighbors emerge asking why somebody cried. Street looks normal. Every light stays on. Maybe whatever it was is gone. [Male Vocals - quiet] Then the power company calls. [Female Vocals] What'd they say? [Male Vocals - tense] There wasn't an outage. [Instrumental slam] [Female Vocals - rapid shout-rap] THEN KILL THE TV! CHECK EVERY ROOM! IF THE GRID NEVER FAILED THEN WHAT THE FUCK DID?! CHECK THE WINDOWS! CHECK THE HALL! DON'T LEAVE A SINGLE DARK SPACE AT ALL! [Female Vocals - shouted] BEDROOM! [Male Vocals - shouted] CLEAR! [Female Vocals] KITCHEN! [Male Vocals] CLEAR! [Female Vocals] BATHROOM! [Male Vocals] CLEAR! [Female Vocals - tense] Basement. [Pause] [Male Vocals] We don't have a basement. [Pause] [Female Vocals - quiet] Then why is there a light on downstairs? [Breakdown - massive distorted guitar] [Male + Female Vocals - explosive chorus] BLACKOUT! KILL THE LIGHT! SOMETHING GOT INSIDE WHILE WE WERE WATCHING OUTSIDE! BLACKOUT! DON'T TURN AROUND! IF THERE'S LIGHT BENEATH A DOOR— [Male Vocals - screamed] THAT DOOR WASN'T THERE BEFORE! [Instrumental - frantic guitar and drums] [Female Vocals - aggressive] We're leaving. [Male Vocals] Front door? [Female Vocals] Front door. [Male Vocals] Don't check downstairs? [Female Vocals - shouted] WHY THE FUCK WOULD WE?! [Final Chorus - Male + Female Vocals] BLACKOUT! KEEP IT BRIGHT! LET SOMEBODY ELSE FIGURE OUT THIS SHIT TONIGHT! BLACKOUT! DON'T LOOK BACK! [Male Vocals - shouted] GET IN THE CAR! [Female Vocals - shouted] AND FLOOR IT! [Outro - electric guitar riff continues, no ambient outro] [Male Vocals - tense] Wait. [Female Vocals] What now? [Male Vocals] Streetlight behind us just went out. [Female Vocals - shouted] DRIVE!
