The Burning Cities - Something You Should Know Lyrics



The Burning Cities - Something You Should Know Lyrics
Official




[ Featuring Justin Serrao ]

He's lying there in the middle bunk of a tour bus headed west
He's seeing how these situations can put a man to the test
Trying to sleep and thinking about how he left things back at home
He's wondering how you're doing and if you're sat there all alone

You said, don't go
As he walked out the door
You've seen him leave a thousand times
But you've never said that before
You said "Don't go"
And he's never felt so torn
Another tour, a click of the front door
Leaves him a little unsettled

A few weeks later on a sunken couch at a Starbucks in New York
And you've sent him a message saying, baby, we need to talk
You say he's been distant and he's been vague
Is there something you should know?
She can tell that something's been going on
The cracks have begun to show

When did "Don't go" become "Is there something you should know?"?
When did "Don't go" become "Is there something you should know?"?
When did "Don't go" become "Is there something you should know?"?
Is there something
Something
Something
Something you should know?

The world don't take no prisoners
It eats them up alive
We're all bound to get wounded, yeah, but
Some of us survive
And I know I can't take them back, all those mistakes that I've made
But I think my dues have finally paid
Still I've never ever though you'd be the one to stray
Yeah

I'm sitting here drunk on a barstool down in Nashville, Tennessee
Looking up, this pretty young thing is sat right next to me
Another round of whiskey shots
Her hand touches my knee
She whispers something in my ear
As my friend turns to leave

She said "Don't go
Stay with me tonight
I live right up the road now, darlin'
Don't put up a fight"

She said "Don't go
Your friends have left you here alone
Mr married man, I don't need much tonight
And I'm struggling to figure wrong from right"
Now here I am calling a cab in the morning light
Yeah Ah Yeah

When did "Don't go" become "Is there something you should know?"? (I'm leaving)
When did "Don't go" become "Is there something you should know?"? (I'm leaving, I'm leaving you tonight)
When did "Don't go" become "Is there something you should know?"? (I'm leaving)
When did "Don't go" become "Is there something you should know?"? (I'm leaving, I'm leaving you tonight)
When did "Don't go" become "Is there something you should know?"? (I'm leaving)

I'm fifteen thousand miles away and you're crying on the phone
When did "Don't go" become "Is there something you should know?"? (I'm leaving)
Is there something (I'm leaving)
Something (I'm leaving)
Something
Something you should know (Yeah)

(Something you should know)
(Something you should know)
Yeah, yeah
(Something you should know) You should be leaving
I'm leaving you tonight (Something you should know)
