Go On Lyrics

Call this on my awful luck
Skies they opened wide for us
Oh, what a heavy rain it was that covered all of you.
The wind has changed, my boy
I never knew a voice like yours
But i know just what good it was, that lie you hold on to.

But to call those shadows coming after you -
Go on, go on
I couldn't bear to lose -
Go on, go on
I couldn't stand to -
They begged you for your awful words
So let them know the burden of your blues.

It could've been the one you loved
The visions of the things I'd done
Well, I wouldn't be the only one if you'd only told the truth.
While they chased you down that night
I was pulling feathers from your lies
Oh I swear I saw it in your eyes, you never told it true.

But to call those shadows coming after you -
Go on, go on
I couldn't beg you to -
Go on, go on
I couldn' stand to lose -
They begged you for your awful words
So let them know the burden of your blues.

Oh to call those shadows coming after you -
Go on, go on
I couldn't beg you to -
Go on, go on
I couldn' stand to lose -
They begged you for your awful words
So let them know the burden of your blues.

Basia Bulat is a Canadian singer-songwriter based in London, Ontario. She released a self-titled Independent EP in 2005. Her debut album, Oh My Darling, was released in 2007. Her second album, Heart Of My Own, released in January 2010. As reviewed in Pitchfork, Feb 8/10, "...but while Bulat's versatility's a selling point, it's her rare, extraordinary voice that makes her a fresh find in the notoriously musty folk-pop bin. Graceful and incandescent, confident but approachable, her alto's the aural equivalent of the perfect party host who makes every guest not only welcome, but certain they're the most important person in the room."

She appeared in the September edition of Now! Magazine. She also appeared on the LOLA 2007 line-up, using her lush instrumental back-ups to accompany her reedy voice. Her first album has been hailed in the Exclaim! monthly newspaper and on several online publications.

Basia was nominated in 2010 for a Polaris Music Prize and nominated in 2011 for a Juno in the Best New Artist category. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
