LYRICS
Walk the line
Knowing it’s not in fashion 
Heart on the sleeve of my satin blouse 
Going to your house
Every night 
Looking for satisfaction
You could be a lover 
But honestly I’ve had too many to count 

Part of me is over it 
Pretend I don’t give a shit
I answer your messages
Sit and I question 
Why people leave read receipts on 

And i’m just a pawn
In some game of love 
This isn’t me at all 
Need to change it up 

I’ve seen the light
But it doesn’t mean that much
Can’t fall asleep
I may never get up
Into the night
I think my time is up 
I’ve seen the light 
And that’s enough -----

So I try softness
Sometimes mistaken for kindness
But if i’m too kind that’s weakness
‘Till I become blind 
And sleepless
Can’t treat this 

Oh i’m faithful 
To those I feel deserve love
But I guess that’s everyone
Not sure that I have enough

Nobody’s made me feel this way 
And now i’ll never be the same 
Hang up the phone and scream your name 
Again and again 
But i like the pain 

I’ve seen the light
But it doesn’t mean that much
Can’t fall asleep
I may never get up
Into the night
I think my time is up
And I’ve seen the light
That’s enough

The Light

Indie pop powerhouse Begonia launched into the Canadian music scene with her critically acclaimed 2017 EP Lady In Mind. Begonia received media praise, numerous awards, and two #1 songs on Canada’s CBC national radio chart. Yet to her fans, she felt like music’s best kept secret.  

Begonia released her audacious debut LP Fear in September 2019. Fear was longlisted for the Polaris Prize and spent 10 straight weeks as the #1 album on !earshot’s Top 50 chart. Two of her singles were named CBC Music Fan Favourites, and songs from the album have appeared in productions on Netflix & Oprah Winfrey Network. Begonia has been touring major festivals and playing to sold-out audiences at small clubs across North America. On stage, Begonia dresses in a bold, bright-coloured wardrobe; it’s how she feels most powerful, “almost like a superhero version of myself.” 

Begonia was set to make her European touring debut in May 2020. Due to COVID-19, the remaining dates on Begonia’s Fear Tour were cancelled upon arrival in New York. Just two weeks earlier, cameras captured Begonia’s five consecutive sold-out shows in her hometown of Winnipeg. The explosive performances captured the imagination of a whole city, and The Fear Tour (Live) will be available  January 29, 2021 on all streaming platforms.
