The National

LyricsDon't Swallow the Cap

Gold light breaks

behind the houses

I don't see what's

strange about this

Tiny bubbles

hang above me

It's a sign that

someone loves me

I can hardly stand upright

Hit my head upon the light

I have faith but don't believe it

It's not there enough to leave it

Everything I love

is on the table

Everything I love

is out to sea

I have only two emotions

Careful fear and dead devotion

I can't get the balance right

Throw my marbles in the fight

I see all the ones I went for

All the things I had it in for

I won't cry until I hear

'Cause I was not

supposed to be here

Everything I love

is on the table

Everything I love

is out to sea

I'm not alone

I'll never be

Into the bone

I'm evergreen

I'm tired I'm freezing

I'm dumb

When it gets so late

I forget everyone

I need somewhere to stay

Don't think anybody

I know is awake

Calm down it's alright

Keep my arms

the rest of the night

When they ask

what do I see

I say a bright white

beautiful heaven

hanging over me

Oh oh oh oh

I'm not alone

I'll never be

Into the bone

I'm evergreen

And if you want

To see me cry

Play Let it Be

Or Nevermind

Is it time to leave

is it time to think about

What I want to say

to the girls at the door

I need somewhere to be

But I can't get around

the river in front of me

Calm down it's alright

Leave my arms

the rest of the night

When they ask

what do I see

I say a bright white

beautiful heaven

hanging over me

Oh oh oh oh

I'm not alone

I'll never be

Into the bone

I'm evergreen

And if you want

To see me cry

Play Let it Be

Or Nevermind
