Banquet lyrics

by Bloc Party

     


  

I'll sing it one last time for you 
Then we really have to go 
You've been the only thing that's right 
In all I've done 

And I can barely look at you 
But every single time I do 
I know we'll make it any where 
Away from here 

Light up, light up 
As if you have a choice 
Even if you can not hear my voice 
I'll be right beside you dear 

Louder, Louder 
And we'll run for our lives 
I can hardly speak I understand 
Why you can't raise your voice to say 

To think i might not see those eyes 
Makes it so hard not to cry 
And as we say our long goodbyes 
I nearly do 

Light up, light up 
As if you have a choice 
Even if you can not hear my voice 
I'll be right beside you dear 

Louder, Louder 
And we'll run for our lives 
I can hardly speak I understand 
Why you can't raise your voice to say 

Slower, slower 
We don't have time for that 
All I want's to find an easier way 
To get out of our little heads 

Have heart, my dear 
We're bound to be afraid 
Even if its just for a few days 
Making up for all this mess 

Light up, light up 
As if you have a choice 
Even if you can not hear my voice 
I'll be right beside you dear
