about

The city of Ember is surrounded by darkness. The people depend on a generator for survival, but the generator is breaking down. Some of the citizens begin to panic. This song expresses their point of view.

lyrics

Hear that crackle when the lights go out?
Hear the people scream and shout?
We don't know what to do!
We don't know what to do!
If the generator dies we will all die too!

Smell the generator burning its gears
Smell the city dying of fear
We don't know what to do!
We don't know what to do!
If the generator dies we will all die too!

We are doomed
We are doomed
We will lose our power soon
We'll be stuck in endless gloom
We are doomed
We are doomed
We are lying in our tomb
We are lying in our tomb

Feel the sadness creeping through the town
Feel the darkness dragging us down
We don't know what to do!
We don't know what to do!
If the generator dies we will all die too!

We are doomed
We are doomed
We will lose our power soon
We'll be stuck in endless gloom
We will lose our power soon - We are lying in our tomb
We'll be stuck in endless gloom - We are lying in our tomb
We will lose our power soon - We are lying in our tomb
We'll be stuck in endless gloom - We are lying in our tomb
