National, The - Slipped Lyrics
I'm in the city you hated
My eyes are fallen
Counting the clicks with the living dead
My eyes are red
My eyes are fallen
I'm having trouble inside my skin
I try to keep my skeletons in
Is it weird to be back in the south?
And can they even tell
That the city girl was ever there -
Or anywhere?
I'm having trouble inside my skin
I'll be a friend and a fuck-up
And everything
But I'll never be
Anything you ever want me to be
I keep coming back here where everything slipped
But I will not spill my guts out
I keep coming back here where everything slipped
But I will not spill my guts out
I don't need any help to be breakable, believe me
I know nobody else who can laugh along to any kind of joke
I won't need any help to be lonely when you leave me
It'll be easy to cover
Gather my skeletons far inside
It'll be summer in Dallas
Before I realize
I don't want you to grieve
But I want you to sympathize (alright)
I can't blame you for losing
Your mind for a little while (so did I)
I don't want you to change
But I want you to recognize (that I)
It'll be easy to cover
Gather your skeletons far inside
It'll be summer in Dallas
Before you realize
That I'll never be
Anything you ever want me to be
I keep coming back here where everything slipped
But I will not spill my guts out
I keep coming back here where everything slipped
But I will not spill my guts out

"I don't want you to grieve but want you to sympathize."
When you just want the person who broke your heart to acknowledge your suffering. But they won't.
Phillip Campbell brilliant way to express that
Todd Marshall approves
Best song ever
Perhaps my favorite National song...
