The National

The National is an indie rock band formed in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1999 and currently based in Brooklyn, New York. The band's lyrics, which have been described as "dark, melancholy and difficult to interpret", are written and sung by Matt Berninger, a baritone. The rest of the band is composed of two pairs of brothers: twins Aaron (guitar and keyboard) and Bryce Dessner (guitar) and Scott (bass) and Bryan Devendorf (drums). The National has been compared to Joy Division, Leonard Cohen, Wilco and Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds. The name of the band was chosen because it "didn't mean anything" and was "benign and meaningless". more »

Did you clean yourself
For me last night
Put the water out and donned a marigold
In your hair to bring me here
Tie one on you

Did you dress me down and liquor me up
To make me last for the minute
When the red comes over you
Like it does when you're filled with love
Or whatever you call it

Do you feel alone when I'm in my head
While you wait for me
To take my breath?
Do you still feel clean
When the only dirt is the dirt I left?
How can you blame yourself
When I did everything I wanted to?

You just made yourself available
You just made yourself available

Why did you dress me down?
Why did you dress me down?
Why did you dress me down?
Why did you dress me down?
Why did you dress me down?
Dress me down?
Why did you dress me down?
Dress me down?
Why did you dress me down?
Dress me down?
Dressed me down and liquor me up?
And liquor me up?
And liquor me up?
And liquor me up?
