*Trigger warning contains assault and abuse*
Tonight the wind brushes the trees swaying in the wind
Tonight a girl will sit on a bench waiting until till daddy stops yelling at mama with swears and curses fly around
Tonight a boy gets drunk to forget about the hurt his dad gives him because he's not worth it
The boy drinks and the girl lets the tears fall down her face in the wind of tonight
Oh tonight things go down things we wish that didn't go around
And tonight stuff will rock their worlds shake it up gonna change their lives
Cause it's tonight
Tonight there worlds will change in moment of light
Because it's tonight
The girl thinks it safe to go in so she heads home in the wind
The boy doesn't care anymore so he heads knowing his scary fate but doesn't care
Tonight the girl gets hit for the first time and oh it won't be the last
Tonight is the last time the boy will be hit and he knows it
Today is the first time the boy feels free in his skin
Today is the first time the girl feels trapped in her own house that she's living in
They have traded places just like many others of the world
Because Tonight there worlds will change in moment of light
It's tonight
They both never will forget what got left behind
One is free the other dying inside '
Tomorrow the girl will tell and the teachers won't believe her
She'll beg them and plead with them, but they won't listen
Tomorrow the boy will go to jail for standing up for himself and he's okay with that
In the future the girl will slowly die and learn to let the tears fly away
In the future the boy will cry for the girl he lost on the bench that night
Because it's tonight in moment of light
Their lives were so alike yet they both will still cry
Because it's tonight
