National, The - Guilty Party Lyrics






You're sleeping night and day
How'd you do it
Me I am wide awake
Feeling defeated

I say your name
I say I'm sorry
I know it's not working
I'm no holiday
It's nobody's fault
No guilty party
We just got nothing
Nothing left to say

Another year gets away
Another summer of love
I don't know why I care
We miss it every summer

I say your name
I say I'm sorry
I'm the one doing this
There's no other way
It's nobody's fault
No guilty party
I just got nothing, nothing left to say

It all, all catches up to me
It all, all catches up to me all the time

I say your name
I say I'm sorry
I know it's not working, I'm no holiday
It's nobody's fault
No guilty party
We just got nothing, nothing left to say

I say your name
I say I'm sorry
I'm the one doing this, there's no other way
It's nobody's fault
No guilty party
I just got nothing, nothing left to say

It all, all just catches up to me
It all, all catches up to me all the time

National, The Guilty Party Comments
  1. L.... B....

    I’m a musician and I listen to so many different bands, some are really good some are not my style but ... The National is the only band from the hundreds , maybe thousands of bands I’ve heard that I’ve stablished a deep connection , they’re different , they’re too .. real , I feel like crying listening to their music .. it’s so beautiful

    I’m from Ecuador , hope you guys come someday here

    Willo

  2. N.... H....

    this is the soundtrack to my life

  3. W.... M....

    This is exactly what heading towards a divorce feels like.

  4. l.... k....

    wow a great song it is

  5. K.... F....

    Anything what I remember from past, is You

  6. H.... Z....

    How hard it is to realize a relationship is not working anymore. Even if you know is going to break you inside more than for the other, to break up with that person. To listen to reproaches and to see sadness, knowing that with time, that person will be the first one, because of anger, to move on. Ironically, to see this accomplished. Still. How hard it is to stay true to yourself, and be blamed for it.

  7. M.... V....

    Can tell you how!

  8. S.... D....

    There is always a guilty party...

  9. R.... S....

    Und hinter der Melancholie versteckt sich das Schöne in ihrer Musik.

  10. T.... ....

    Funny how this is seemingly interpreted as a breakup song from all of the comments I'm reading. I've always viewed it as a song about suicide. I suppose where an individual is in their own life has a great impact on how they hear music. Sad.

  11. d.... s....

    You're sleeping night and day
    How d'you do it?
    Me I am wide awake
    Feeling defeated

    I say your name
    I say I'm sorry
    I know it's not working
    I'm no holiday
    It's nobody's fault
    No guilty party
    We just got nothing
    Nothing left to say

    Another year gets away
    Another summer of love
    I don't know why I care
    We miss it every summer

    I say your name
    I say I'm sorry
    I'm the one doing this
    There's no other way
    It's nobody's fault
    No guilty party
    I just got nothing, nothing left to say

    It all, all catches up to me
    It all, all catches up to me all the time

    I say your name
    I say I'm sorry
    I know it's not working, I'm no holiday
    It's nobody's fault
    No guilty party
    We just got nothing, nothing left to say

    I say your name
    I say I'm sorry
    I'm the one doing this, there's no other way
    It's nobody's fault
    No guilty party
    I just got nothing, nothing left to say

    It all, all just catches up to me
    It all, all catches up to me all the time

  12. M.... R....

    This song is Amazing 😇😍
    Here it on The originals S5E1 Klaus+Hope :):):) 😇✔👌👍

    M.... R....

    The originals brought me here

  13. D.... C....

    Even better live!

  14. J.... T....

    My life is measured in the moments of time in between The National ‘s album releases. Every song seems to be the lyrics my soul has been dying to express.

  15. N.... P....

    I'm ethical and love myself.

  16. s.... ....

    fuck :(

  17. S.... D....

    The word, 'Underrated ' Is used....All.. The... Time...

  18. S.... D....

    "All the time". Just before guitar solo. Goose bumps.

  19. S.... D....

    She is sleeping,night and day. Thank God.

  20. S.... D....

    A vast,vacuous monster of a tune,even better live. Top,top,band!

  21. J.... S....

    Ahhh… The moment you finally realize this is what he was listening to when he left you. I was hiding too scared of the radio. I just realized they released a new album and the playlist brings me here. Nice. Now I can be on his level finally.

  22. a.... ....

    All the songs of this album are masterpieces! better than Boxer? What do you think?

  23. a.... o....

    omg i love this song. so happy to be in touch with it again. though it has never left. lol.

  24. U.... ....

    Some people say there's a woman to blame, but I know, it's nobody's fault

  25. S.... J....

    Does anyone have any advice on losing a best friend?

    It's hard to watch her slowly become a stranger everyday. I tried to keep talking with her but i can see her avoiding me so i decided to stop trying to not make it any harder for her. On the other side, it doesn't make it any easier for me and the feelings distract me from education and from living fully.

    I already know why she avoids me - she simply found better friends than me. Its just the feeling of loss that i can't handle.

    S.... J....

    I hope you're okay

  26. D.... M....

    Would love to see Thom Yorke sing this.

  27. n.... r....

    Dedicate this song to this special lady name Jill.

  28. R.... B....

    One more masterpiece from this amazing band. Please come to Iceland

  29. D.... G....

    Inñove it you are tje best

  30. C.... R....

    Saw them in Milan last summer, I bursted into tears while they were playing Guilty Party. They are amazing live. Gave me such great emotions that I can still revive them...

  31. F.... S....

    parece que soy el único de habla castellana que escucha a estos genios

  32. F.... S....

    mama mia que banda, de una de las mejores lejos... de los últimos tiempos. desde argentina... enormes

  33. s.... j....

    Beautiful song! (My life with girl friends.)

  34. S.... D....

    It all catches up to me,all... The time.

  35. S.... D....

    Makes me wanna snort coke on the main stage at Glastonbury!

  36. S.... A....

  37. M.... G....

  47. D.... F....

    Texas. Clouds. Tunes. Chillin.

  48. E.... A....

    Magic tune. Thx.

  49. c.... ....

    Such wonderful, touching, soul-gripping sounds, the tones and textures become so personal, even poignant, that I can swear a mass of emotion rose in my chest, an immense sensation like being hit in the chest by a wrecking ball. Such an intense feeling, it was a heartache like I've never known, similar to intense mourning, a yearning for something so valuable, now lost, never ever to be replaced or duplicated. I became so sad and honestly emotional that my eyes watered, producing a few tears. This is one of those songs you can never stop listening to.

  50. E.... S....

    here's the lyrics y'all :')

    You're sleeping night and day
    How d'you do it?
    Me I am wide awake
    Feeling defeated
    I say your name
    I say I'm sorry
    I know it's not working
    I'm no holiday
    It's nobody's fault
    No guilty party
    We just got nothing
    Nothing left to say
    Another year gets away
    Another summer of love
    I don't know why I care
    We miss it every summer
    I say your name
    I say I'm sorry
    I'm the one doing this
    There's no other way
    It's nobody's fault
    No guilty party

    It all, all catches up to me
    It all, all catches up to me all the time
    I say your name
    I say I'm sorry
    I know it's not working, I'm no holiday

    No guilty party
    We just got nothing, nothing left to say
    I say your name
    I say I'm sorry
    I'm the one doing this, there's no other way
    It's nobody's fault
    No guilty party
    I just got nothing, nothing left to say
    It all, all just catches up to me
    It all, all catches up to me all the time
