I doubt any one will read this in the ocean of the internet, My stepdad used to listen to this station, Sirius XM U. These were the songs of childhood, hated then, loved now. Just like everything. Like him, the past will always be greater then this.

[@NYPDBLUE87]

Lyrics from album sleeve: Gold light breaks behind the houses, I don't see what's strange about this. Tiny bubbles hang above me. It's a sign that someone loves me. I can hardly stand up right. I hit my head upon the light. I have faith but don't believe it. It's not there enough to leave it. Everything I love is on the table. Everything I love is out to sea. I have only two emotions, careful fear and dead devotion. I can't get the balance right, with all my marbles in the fight. I see all the ones I went for, all the things I had it in for. I won't cry until I hear, because I was not supposed to be here. Everything I love is on the table. Everything I love is out to sea. I'm not alone. I'll never be. And to the bone, I'm evergreen. I'm tired. I'm freezing. I'm dumb. When it gets so late I forget everyone. I need somewhere to stay. I don't think anybody I know is awake. Calm down, it's alright, keep my arms the rest of the night. When they ask what do I see, I say a bright white beautiful heaven hanging over me. I'm not alone. I'll never be. And to the bone, I'm evergreen. And if you want (dead seriously) to see me cry (don't swallow the cap), play Let It Be (pat yourself on the back) or Nevermind (dead seriously). Is it time to leave? Is it time to think about what I want to say to the girls at the door? I need somewhere to be, but I can't get around the river in front of me. Calm down, it's all right, leave my arms the rest of the night. When they ask what do I see, I say a bright white beautiful heaven hanging over me. I'm not alone (dead seriously). I'll never be (don't swallow the cap). And to the bone (pat yourself on the back), I'm evergreen (dead seriously). And if you want (dead seriously) to see me cry (don't swallow the cap), play Let It Be (pat yourself on the back) or Nevermind (dead seriously)

I truly understood the national when I was in a depression. Their music captures the beauty of the music with haunting lyrics that show how temporary everything is. Everything we love we will lose in either life or death.

I discovered The National back in 2013. The strange yet wonderful thing about this band is that I almost have a relationship with them and their music. They are not just easy for me to listen to, they give me an experience. Very haunting songs that cut right to the core for me. Their songs are abstract yet so relatable. This is absolutely my favorite band. Never has any musical artist or group affected me as much as the National

[@conradclipper]

Brag: I've been ultra lucky enough to have beers etc with them on two occasions and both times they were absolutely the fucking nicest, coolest, humblest, most engaged-with-the-world, excellent people. All of them. I'm sorry but I had to say that. They deserve every bit of credit for just being good. Check: EL VY - Paul Is Alive (Lyric Video)

[@conradclipper]

can I just add, because I forgot to say, is that I was moved to write that exactly because of your relationship observation. Feel the same way.

[@turtlelord9939]

The fact that the title of the song is said almost subliminally really adds to the feel it was going for. I feel empty and completely tranquil at the same time.

[@thebluelight]

after recently getting into this album, i feel like that's what really draws me to it. i feel like matt doesn't really like to put handles on his lyrics and meanings and it opens up a lot of doors for interpretation. for me that always makes for great songwriting

I knew this band because of Foo Fighters. It was a Foo Fighters concert for the first time in Mexico, The National was the opening band and it was f#*%Ing awesome!! and this song was the first in the concert. it's almost two years ago but I still remember my chest vibrating the whole concert because of the bass drum and because my site was one of the front ones. I hope one day can go to another great concert like that again.

[@donaldcampbell9483]

You have to see them live. I just saw them in Vegas. They are incredible live!

[@steveym90]

With a good set of headphones you can hear Matt has recorded the vocals twice (and does in many of the songs I've found, but it's especially prevalent here), and that quiet, rich baritone during the versus is so, so bloody good.

[@christineharrelson4831]

That's fairly common in a lot of songs. It takes a special ear to hear it sometimes, though. And dontcha just love deeper voices? I certainly do.

[@whatsarahsaid3]

I have only two emotions: being hopelessly in love with the National and being hopelessly in love with the National.

[@shaunam7076]

Nice

[@tjdrummer13]

I think this is one of the most powerful, intelligent but beautifully simple and most importantly HONEST albums I've ever heard. They've been a totally organic and independent band for 14 years, and this album is the peak of showing that. In an interview Matt said that they've just stopped giving a shit what people think about them, and about what kind of band they are or want to be. They just go embrace what they are and great music comes out of that. You're not alone :)

[@HunterCrim4767]

Listened to this song in rehab 10 years ago and was so moved by the “when they ask me what I see, I see a bright white beautifully heaven hanging over me.” I wrote it on a note. Just read it all these years later. As I listened to the song for the first time since, staring up at the night sky that was kept from me while I was there, I wept. Sorrow then joy in equal measure.

[@tom_shaw]

I just want to say, that this song really helped me through a tough time. It really speaks to the depths of my being, emotional, moving, but also so true. i

[@ValJesternity]

+Tom Shaw i could have said that for most of their songs.like some says "i know what you fell, bro". it reminds me the first time i saw them live, a bunch of dudes who dont know each other, crying a little, well we wer connected each other. T

I bought Nevermind and In Utero back in 1993 or 1994 in one of those "ten CDs for a penny" deals, and I found them to be pretty mediocre compared to what else was out there at the time. After Kurt took his dose of shotgun mouthwash, I just quit listening to them, and I never thought they'd end up being as revered as they are today.

I had an aunt that was full of fire who was given a nasty cancer diagnosis so she just stopped trying. Stopped eating, stopped fighting. My mother, who herself had been fighting cancer for some years, said I should visit her before it was too late. I got to her house and she was in bed, a skeleton, struggling to breathe.
