"Self Portrait With Thing (Tonight Is Not Your Night)" lyrics - DESTROYER
Honey, I know I know you were born to give
And I also know I'm not the one you've been dying to slip off with into the night
Cherished radical, I always knew you had it in you
Trials by fire are so easily won
Just try not to burn and things might not get worse
Hollowed-out valleys now rattle with the curse
That tonight is not your night
It's not your night
That tonight is not your night
It's not your night
Well, I followed the cries to a second-story flat
And in praise of bad luck, I threw down the homemade hat she made
Soon, the feral beast did beautify our wounds with a body that knew
You shouldn't hurt the ones you love
Unless you really want to
Tried to celebrate the world, not hurl insults at a girl
But that finite rush which destroys every one of us
It's the good destruction
Yeah, Hannah, you heard it here first
It's the good destruction
Now it's one forty-five and for some reason it's the season of trying to stay alive
So, let's stick together and breathe beneath the weather
It will be our doing
Son, given the right occasion
I'd put myself up for sale to post the necessary bail that would free you from this kingdom
Oh, but tonight is not your night
No, it's not your night
No, tonight is not your night
It's not your night
Oh, but tonight is not your night
No, it's not your night
No, tonight is not your night
No, it's not your night
