Like a Saturday night I'll be gone 
Like a Saturday night I'll be gone 
Before you knew that I was there 

So you wrote it down 
I'm supposed to care 
Even though it's never there 
Sorry if I'm not prepared 
Is it hard to see the things you substitute 
For me and all my thoughts of you 
It's eating me alive to leave you 

Maybe it's childish and maybe it's wrong 
But so is your blank stare in lieu of this song 
Maybe it's childish and maybe it's wrong 

Don't want to be, don't want to be wrong 
You're leaving me, you're leaving me in lieu of this song 
Don't want to be, don't want to be wrong 
You're leaving me, you're leaving me in lieu of this, lieu of this song.

I'm breathing in your skin tonight 
Quiet is my loudest cry 
Wouldn't want to wake the eyes that make me melt inside 
And if it's healthier to leave you be 
May a sickness come and set me free 
Kill me while I still believe that you were meant for me 

I'm finding my own words, my own little stage 
My own epic drama, my own scripted page 
I'll send you the rough draft, I'll seal it with tears 
Maybe you'll read it and I'll reappear 
From the start it was shaky and the characters rash, 
A nice setting for heartache where emotions come last 
All I have deep inside, to overcome this desire 
Are friendly intentions and fair-weather smiles 

And I don't want to be, don't want to be wrong 
You're leaving me, you're leaving me in lieu of this song 
Don't want to be, don't want to be wrong 
You're leaving me, you're leaving me in lieu of this, in lieu of this song 

Like Saturday night I'll be gone 
Like Saturday night I'll be gone 
Like Saturday night I'll be gone 
Like Saturday night I'll be gone before you knew that I was there
