National, The - Day I Die Lyrics
I don't need you, I don't need you
Besides I barely ever see you anymore
And when I do it feels you're only halfway there
Young mothers love me even ghosts of
Girlfriends call from Cleveland
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
Don't do this, I don't do this to you
Don't expect me to enjoy it
'Cause I really don't have the courage not to turn the volume up inside my ears
For years I used to put my head inside the speakers
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
I get a little punchy with the vodka just like my great uncle Valentine Jester did
But he had to deal with those people like you who made no goddamn common sense
I'd rather walk all the way home right now than to spend one more second in this place
I'm exactly like you Valentine, just come outside and leave with me
Let's just get high enough to see our problems
Let's just get high enough to see our fathers' houses
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?

National, The Day I Die Comments
In love with this masterpiece!
Temazo😎
2:10 you enter another dimension...
Great song. Matt went out to the far reaches of the theater on this one!
2019, we here. I am still crying
"Donkey!" As my great uncle Peter used to say!
The day they die, life will not be worth living.
This is being played at a funeral for my Son.They won't let me know yet,when tis!
i love the national sooo much. perfect mix of dark and light
Uncle Valentine on vodka,uncle Peter on drums.
That's the trouble,I just can't get high enough...
The best American band for the last ten years.
Qué tieeempos😊
Let's get high enough to see our fathers houses.
Discovered these just after getting rid of throat cancer.i cant sing anymore but I can fucking dance to this.
Tuuuuuuuuuune.mcfc ok.
DONKEY!!!!!!
I know where I will be... Being born again.. No doubt.
And I'm exactly like you Uncle Peter.
"Let's just get high enough to see our problems,let's just get high enough to see our faults" ...Says it all,really.
This song is everything to me...(apart from the Cleveland bit).
I wish I'de had a great uncle Valentine. Mine was Great uncle Peter.. But as it turned out,Peter was the greatest of my family.
I still remember him taking coke on stage at Glastonbury. And smashing wine bottles.. LEGENDS.
Top tack there mate..!
National Anthem
where will we be the day they die
Bryan Devendorf! Damn.
Love it 😍😍😍
This is the first time Ive heard of this band. They are pretty timeless. This could very easily have come out in 1986-89 . Sounds like a lot of the New Wave /Alternative Rock that I used to listen to.
How do 800 people not like this. They are probably the one's complaining there is no good new music anymore
Where will I be? Probably at home listening to this song.
I'm loving that flock of seagulls vibe.
That vocie...
Me encanta
So good
love this band, this is how music should be
Weird Arcade Fire vibes in this song... feels good
Justo lo que necesito ahora
where are you
Ha! I really did have a "mad" uncle Peter,he was a top man,died after too many bottles of rum.
Two day's after I died my missus will have no electric,gas or drug's. And she would've killed me.
Wow, awesome! The guitar player (really, the whole vibe) sounds so much like one of my fav bands, The Connells. Scotty’s Lament—https://youtu.be/hKSg3zFB2dE or just the entire album Boylan Heights. If you like this, you’ll like them.
TUNE!!!!!!
People break up with you sometimes.
So true. I think I am falling in love with myself.
I remember when i live on Cleveland 😁😁😀🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Love this.
I somehow think I've heard this somewhere before but i don't know when
Who’s here because of the Giants in Liverpool 2018???
Great fucking song 😁
does anyone else think this sounds like a song - inspired partly by a song by The National - that my old band wrote, recorded 2014? 🤔
https://youtu.be/EmpmwIjC5JE
Reminds me of Interpol.
take that L
Don`t die Mr. Berninger
great stuff
My favorit band pt.
"The day I die, where will we be?..." :(
i really enjoy this song while I'm in the bus looking outside lol
let's just get high :^)
I'm exactly like you,uncle Peter.
This will be playing on the day I die, "it's sorted",Where will YOU BE?
Let's just get high enough to care.
Where will we be???In darkness.Isuppose.
The day i die, where would we be?
Great drummer too.
i feel like every good band have done some serious drugs😂😂 there can simply be no other way!
Ali Heydari lol
I don't need you, I don't need you
Besides I barely ever see you anymore
And when I do it feels you're only halfway there
Young mothers love me even ghosts of
Girlfriends call from Cleveland
They will meet me anytime and anywhere
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
Don't do this, I don't do this to you
Don't expect me to enjoy it
'Cause I really don't have the courage not to turn the volume up inside my ears
For years I used to put my head inside the speakers
In the hallway when you get too high and talk forever
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
I get a little punchy with the vodka just like my great uncle Valentine Jester did
But he had to deal with those people like you who made no goddamn common sense
I'd rather walk all the way home right now than to spend one more second in this place
I'm exactly like you, Valentine, just come outside and leave with me
Let's just get high enough to see our problems
Let's just get high enough to see our fathers' houses
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?

A great record and a great song! If you like The National checkout the runaway by regret the hour
That drummer my god. Just perfect. Best drummer I heard in many years!
मसरूम बनाना सख ना है
It's no "Favor House Atlantic," but I'll take it.
Es la canción de trece razones por que! 😍
*that goddamn guitar piece is it's own song*
ummm, i, like ur comment but, is uzing "God-damn" really necessary....???
@kbrigsby61 God fucking damn it, Jesus Christ I hate you
sound like the smiths
Heidegger, Sartre and Cioran together.
Perfection
The worlds greatest band
That leaning back while singing display makes my intestines cringe
Ok but where's Turtleneck
Yeah great 👍 music!! I like Guilty Party and Terrible Love , those are also great songs!
The National is my favorite bands around today. They are regular looking dudes but cool. They don't try to be cool.
So that's coo! They owe a little somethin' somethin' to Ian Curtis.
want the Day I Die at my funeral
southwest sounds man, thank you. if ur ever in durango co bros, check out southwest sounds
C bien fait
Quem veio do Loolaaaaa
for the one U love at U'r funeral
nice song
Even ghosts of girlfriends call from Cleveland they will meet me anytime and anywhere
This song would have been literally perfect with "American Beauty".
Remind me the beginning of an episode of Grey's anatomy...
Feel nostalgic 💝
This is my all time favorite song for 2018
This is ontological rock, not alternative.
good lyrics
The best part, they managed to beat Ed Sheeran to #1 in the UK charts.
Did they???
Good! Fuck dead sheeran. He's shit and can't make music.
Great song. Sound like “ Headlight look like a Diamonds “ by Arcade Fire.
like so many of us gonna listen to this till The Day I Die
Hello EIL! :)
Joy Division. ...check them out. Love this band . The national brings back great sound from my youth.
Well deserved grammy guys
