Because Tonight - The Besnard Lakes

I know what you wrote for me

I know you’re fed up with me

Can’t you see what it’s doing?

If you’re past understanding

I’ll hold these words for you

I won’t say anything

Because tonight

When everyone’s gone home

You’ll grab the knife

To satisfy your dark needs

Because tonight

You’ll suffocate by dawn

And all the world

Had wished you hadn’t gone away, dear

Don’t go
