Blackout Problems
The National
[Verse 1]
I’ve been told
Life’s not a joke you should laugh about
Once you’re old
You’ll know what I’m talking about
But I won’t grow old
I smiled and I denied
I guess I’ve earned
This shacking heads I got replied
[Pre-Chorus]
No, so many stones to throw
No, so many places to go, to go, to go
So many places to go
[Verse 2]
I quit my job
And worked for 6 or 7 bucks at a bar
I won’t get far
Making chicks drunk so I took off
I got in the van
Take me somewhere, I don’t care where
I thought I’d return
And be someone, but no one cared
[Pre-Chorus]
No, so many stones to throw
No, so many places to go, to go, to go
[Chorus]
Come what may I will sing along to the national
On the radio
Come what may I will sing along to the national
On the radio
Don’t fall asleep, don’t fall asleep, don’t fall asleep
In my fake empire
Don’t fall asleep, don’t fall asleep, don’t fall asleep
In my fake empire
My fake empire
My fake
[Verse 3]
After the show
We always met on the highest floor
Danny’s home?
The window sill right next to the door
We should have known
Once you fall there’s no way back on
Life’s not a joke
Guess they were right and I was wrong
[Pre-Chorus]
No, so many places to go, to go, to go
[Chorus]
Come what may I will sing along to the national
On the radio
Come what may I will sing along to the national
On the radio
Don’t fall asleep, don’t fall asleep, don’t fall asleep
In my fake empire
Don’t fall asleep, don’t fall asleep, don’t fall asleep
In my fake empire
My fake empire
My fake
