Lyrics
You're watching your favorite show
When the TV died
The biggest power-cut in your neighbourhood since 1989
A blackout in the center of town
But down in the suburbs where it first went out
They've been asking, asking the question
Are you afraid of the darkness?
Are you afraid of the darkness?
I'm afraid of the darkness too
In the hospital
On the critical ward
Too long a breath between
The break and the backup of a life support
One system failure and it stopped her heart
One power vacuum and we're coming apart
We should be asking, asking the question
Are you afraid of the darkness?
Are you afraid of the darkness?
I'm afraid of the darkness too
We're all caught in the blackout
Trying to feel our way out
Wait for the morning
I'll be waiting for you
Meet me in the middle
Meet me in the middle
Bring a burning candle with you
Meet me in the middle
Meet me in the middle
I will be there waiting for you
I was in my comfort zone
I was singing selfish songs
I've been taking for granted everyone understood how easy trouble comes
But it's not enough anymore
We can't turn just around and close the door on the world
It's asking uneasy questions
We should be asking ourselves uneasy questions
Are you afraid of the darkness?
Are you afraid of the darkness?
I'm afraid of the darkness too
We're all caught in the blackout
Trying to feel our way out
Wait for the morning
I'll be waiting for you
Meet me in the middle
Meet me in the middle
Bring a burning candle with you
Meet me in the middle
Meet me in the middle
I will be there waiting for you
Meet me in the middle
Meet me in the middle
Bring a burning candle with you
Meet me in the middle

    At my lowest, loneliest, most lost moments, I turn to Frank Turner to put some flicker of light in my life. Can't tell you ho often a few chords and some sincere lyrics have held the darkness at bay.

    It's good to see Frank pushing his sonic boundaries again with this album. Every album has a different sound, something new that still gives a nod to the old stuff (listen to that nice crunchy guitar in the "Meet Me In The Middle" bit). It took a couple of listens to get used to, but this song (and new sound) just keeps giving the more I listen to it.

    I first heard this over Easter weekend while driving around in Dallas with my wife looking at garage sales. I was surprised to hear that it was friggin' Frank Turner. The more this gets played the more it will get popular. This is the song that's going to make Frank Turner mainstream for sure. Enjoy him while you can folks.
