The National "I Should Live In Salt" lyrics

I Should Live In Salt

Don't make me read your mindYou should know me better than thatIt takes me too much timeYou should know me better than thatYou're not that much like meYou should know me better than thatWe have different enemiesYou should know me better than that

I should leave it alone but you're not rightI should leave it alone but you're not right

Can't you write it on the wall?You should know me better than thatThere's no room to write it allYou should know me better than thatCan you turn the TV down?You should know me better than thatThere's too much crying in the soundI should know you better than that

I should leave it alone but you're not rightI should leave it alone but you're not rightI should live in salt for leaving you behindBehind

Think about something so muchYou should know me better than thatStart to slide out of touchYou should know me better than thatTell yourself it's all you knowYou should know me better than thatLearn to appreciate the voidYou should know me better than that

I should live in salt for leaving you behindBehindI should live in salt for leaving you behindBehindI should live in salt for leaving you behindBehind
