1.Walk Off
Every house on the street＊
Will get on their feet
Carry the sleepers out into the weather, from the violet cities
The violet cities
They'll turn on their lights and open their eyes
Drop to their knees and they'll drink from the river in the
violet cities
The violet cities
On and on they'll lead us on and
On and on they'll lead us on
We'll all get high and walk off
Into the country, ridiculous country
Where the blue sky will smother us
Believe me, believe me, believe me
The blue sky will smother us
They'll open their doors and they'll sing to the sun
We don't know anymore how to glitter we come
From the violet cities
The violet cities
If we stand there and stare and everyone's come
They may never find out that we came here at all
From the violet cities
The violet cities
On and on they'll lead us on and
On and on they'll lead us on
We'll all get high and walk off
Into the country, ridiculous country
Where the blue sky will smother us
Believe me, believe me, believe me
The blue sky will smother us
Believe me, believe me, believe me
2.Sin-Eaters
Wall Street jumps in the Hudson river＊
with gold in their bathing suits
Then we send in the miracle fairies
That's all we do
Want to give a withering speech to the fucks
Want to give a withering speech to the fucks
We had beautiful views of the
Weather coming for us
We'll dive in with the sin eaters
While they suck it all up
Want to give a withering speech to the fucks
Want to give a withering speech to the fucks
Save my young white neck, it ain't my fault
Save my young white neck, it ain't my fault
3.Terrible Love (Alternate Version)
It's a terrible love and I'm walking with spiders＊
It's a terrible love and I'm walking in
It's a terrible love and I'm walking with spiders
It's a terrible love and I'm walking in
It's quiet company
It's quiet company
It's a terrible love and I'm walking with spiders
It's a terrible love and I'm walking in
It's a terrible love and I'm walking with spiders
It's a terrible love and I'm walking in
It's quiet company
It's quiet company
It's quiet company
And I can't fall asleep without a little help
It takes a while to settle down
My shivered bones
Until the panic's out
It takes an ocean not to break
It takes an ocean not to break
It takes an ocean not to break
It takes an ocean not to break company
It's quiet company
It's quiet company
It's quiet company
But I won't follow you into the rabbit hole
I said I would, but then I saw
Your shivered bones
They didn't want me too
It's a terrible love and I'm walking with spiders
It's a terrible love and I'm walking in
It's a terrible love and I'm walking with spiders
It's a terrible love and I'm walking in
It takes an ocean not to break
It takes an ocean not to break
It takes an ocean not to break
4.Wake Up Your Saints
I had a hole in the middle＊
Where the lightning went through,
I told my friends not to worry,
My wife would know how to fix it.
Hole in the middle,
I'm seeing less of you.
Now I'm not going anywhere, and I don't know what I'll do.
It's easy to lose your grip.
It's easy.
I never tell my decisions to the ones I adore,
I just show up like a Bible-breather outside the door.
But when I look in the window,
I see girls on TV,
Living and dying in LA, and it means nothing to me.
It's easy to lose your grip.
It's easy.
It's easy to lose your grip.
It's easy.
So I walk through the streets I love,
And I'm led to the house I built,
And I walk through the streets I love,
And I lay in your bed again.
Wake up your saints, Jenny, I need them,
Jenny, I need them, today.
Wake up your saints, Jenny, I need them,
Jenny, I need them, today.
I didn't have to explain to her that I wasn't dead,
She sat me down and lit some colored candles over my head.
She said, 'You're right it's a living, but you're wrong for the
life,
You know you never should've listened to my father's advice.'
It's easy to lose your grip.
It's easy.
It's easy to lose your grip.
It's easy.
So I walk through the streets I love,
And I'm led to the house I built,
And I walk through the streets I love,
And I lay in your bed again.
Wake up your saints, Jenny, I need them,
Jenny, I need them, today.
Wake up your saints, Jenny, I need them,
Jenny, I need them, today.
5.You Were A Kindness
I was in a fog, I didn't notice everything
Was coming all apart inside of me
There wasn't any way for anyone to settle in
You made a slow disaster out of me
There's a radiant darkness upon us
I don't want you to worry
I was careful but nothing is harmless
Baby, you better hurry
You were a kindness when I was a stranger
But I wouldn't ask for what I didn't need
Everything's weird and we're always in danger
Why would you shatter somebody like me？
It doesn't work that way
Wanting not to want you won't make it so
It doesn't work that way
Don't leave me here alone
I'll do what I can to be a confident wreck
Can't feel this way forever, I mean
There wasn't any way for anyone to settle in
You made a slow disaster out of me
There's a radiant darkness upon us
But I don't want you to worry
I was careful but nothing is harmless
Baby, you better hurry
You were a kindness when I was a stranger
But I wouldn't ask for what didn't need
Everything's weird and we're always in danger
Why would you shatter somebody like me？
It doesn't work that way
Wanting not to want you doesn't make it so
It doesn't work that way
Don't leave me here alone
It doesn't work that way
Wanting not to want you doesn't make it so
It doesn't work that way
Don't leave me here alone
6.Apartment Story
Lyricist：Matthew D. Berninger, Aaron B. Dessner
Be still for a second while I try and try to pin your flowers on
La, la, la, la, la
Can you carry my drink？ I have everything else
I can tie my tie all by myself
I'm getting tied, I'm forgetting why
Oh, we're so disarming, darling, everything we did believe
Is diving, diving, diving, diving off the balcony
Tired and wired, we ruin too easy
Sleep in our clothes and wait for winter to leave
Hold ourselves together
With our arms around the stereo for hours
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
While it sings to itself or whatever it does
When it sings to itself of its long lost loves
I'm getting tied, I'm forgetting why
Tired and wired, we ruin too easy
Sleep in our clothes and wait for winter to leave
And I'll be with you, behind the couch
When they come on a different day, just like this one
We'll stay inside till somebody finds us
Do whatever the TV tells us
Stay inside our rosy-minded fuzz for days
We'll stay inside till somebody finds us
Do whatever the TV tells us
Stay inside our rosy-minded fuzz
So worry not, all things are well
We'll be alright, we have our looks and perfume
Stay inside till somebody finds us
Do whatever the TV tells us
Stay inside our rosy-minded fuzz
So worry not, all things are well
We'll be alright, we have our looks and perfume on
7.Baby We�l Be Fine
Lyricist：Matthew D. Berninger, Aaron B. Dessner
All night I lay on my pillow and pray
For my boss to stop me in the hallway
Lay my head on his shoulder and say
Son, I've been hearing good things
I wake up without warning
And go flying around the house
In my sauvignon fierce, freaking out
Take a forty-five minute shower and kiss the mirror
And say, look at me, baby, we'll be fine
All we gotta do is be brave and be kind
I put on an argyle sweater and put on a smile
I don't know how to do this
I'm so sorry for everything
I'm so sorry for everything
I'm so sorry for everything
I'm so sorry for everything
Baby, come over, I need entertaining, I had a stilted,
pretending day
Lay me down and say something pretty
Lay me back down where I wanted to stay
Just say something perfect, something I can steal
Say, look at me, baby, we'll be fine
All we've gotta do is be brave and be kind
I pull off your jeans and you spill jack and coke in my collar
I melt like a witch and scream
I'm so sorry for everything
I'm so sorry for everything
I'm so sorry for everything
...
8.Tall Saint
Lyricist：Matt Berninger, Aaron Dessner, Bryce Dessner
Keep your legs from shaking, fill your eyes with new tears
Don't ask questions, you don't know your name
Something for everyone, try to win prizes
Stay young and quiet
Tall saint I'm devoted with a glass of champagne to you
Bubbles to the chandelier
I'm in your hands tonight
Tall saint stay behind me
Don't tell everybody at the table about your dreams
They're too amazing, it'll melt their minds
Take 'em to Hollywood, cut out the good parts
Become millionaires
Tall saint I'm devoted with a glass of champagne to you
Bubbles to the chandelier
I've been looking for you all night
Tall saint stay behind me now, tall saint
In my city I didn't make a sound
When I fell over and cracked my crown
Heard a woman say stay down
Champion stay down
Tall saint I'm devoted with a glass of champagne to you
Bubbles to the chandelier
I'm in your hands tonight
Tall saint stay behind me now
Tall saint stay behind me now, tall saint
In my city I didn't make a sound
When I fell over and cracked my crown
Heard a woman say stay down
Champion stay down
But I got up, got in a car
Said I don't think I'm gonna go very far
Just take me one time around the ballroom slow
And take me home
9.Forever After Days
Lyricist：Matthew Donald Berninger, Aaron Brooking Dessner, Bryce David
Dessner
On my feet I stand tonight
Stand and step up to the light
An extraordinary man
Unbroken in a breaking light
Forever after days
Stand and make myself a crown
To the table I step alone
Hold my own above the ground
Take my shot under the light
Heroes come the common way
Pull myself into the sky
Wrap me in the banner I made
On my feet I stand tonight
Stand alone inside the air
An extraordinary man
Everything stops and holds me there
Forever after days
Stand and make myself a crown
To the table I step alone
And hold my own above the ground
Take my shot under the light
Heroes come the common way
Pull myself into the sky
Wrap me in the banner I made
Forever after days
Stand and make myself a crown
To the table I step alone
And hold my own above the ground
Take my shot under the light
Heroes come the common way
Pull myself into the sky
Wrap me in the banner I made
10.Rest Of Years
Lyricist：Matthew Donald Berninger, Aaron Brooking Dessner, Bryce David
Dessner, Bryan Devendorf
I'm keeping you in mind
For the rest of years, for the rest of years
In your watery eyes I'm gonna rest all day
In your watery eyes I'm gonna rest all day
In your watery eyes I'm gonna rest some day
In your watery eyes
Tell the saint I'm gonna be a little late
Drawing lines around the river for the rest of years
All in time, but you fade away from
All in time, but you fade away from me
They can't see what I can see
Turned away from me
I can turn everything around
I can turn everything around
They can't see what I can see
Turned away from me
I can turn everything around
I can turn everything around
I heard you in my sleep
For the rest of years, for the rest of years
So lonely, I'm trying to hear you
So lonely, I'm trying to hear you
So lonely, I'm trying to hear you
So lonely, I'm
All in time, but you fade away from
All in time, but you fade away from me love
They can't see what I can see
Turned away from me
I can turn everything around
I can turn everything around
They can't see what I can see
Turned away from me
I can turn everything around
I can turn everything around
They can't see what I can see
Turned away from me
I can turn everything around
I can turn everything around
All in time, but you fade away from
All in time, but you fade away from
All in time, but you fade away from me love
11.Ashamed Of The Story I Told
Lyricist：Mark Joseph Mulcahy
Was it nothing I said？
It's so attractive to be so silent
It keeps the mystery on and it seems
It keeps you hanging on me
Another letter from home
I don't know why I even read it
There's one big question
I don't know why I must repeat it
Maybe I care a little
Perhaps I'm ashamed of the story I told
But you were so eager
Was it so bad for me to say it？
What you wanna hear？
Another letter from home
I don't know why I even read it
There's one big question
I don't know why I must repeat it
Another letter from home
I don't know why I even read it
Another letter from home
I don't know why I even read it
There's one big question
I don't know why I must repeat it
Another letter from home
I don't know why I even read it
There's one big question
I don't know why I must repeat it
Another letter from home
I don't know why I even read it
There's one big question
I don't know why I must repeat it
12.About Today
Lyricist：Berninger Matthew Donald, Dessner Aaron Brooking
Today you were far away and I didn't ask you why？
What could I say I was far away
You just walked away and I just watched you
What could I say？
How close am I to losing you？
Tonight you just close your eyes
And I just watch you slip away
How close am I to losing you？
Hey, are you awake？ Yeah, I'm right here
Well, can I ask you about today？
How close am I to losing you？
How close am I to losing？
13.Cherry Tree
Lyricist：Rupert Philip Lyddon, Lawrence Jon Rudd
Take us down and all apart
Cherry tree
Lay us out on the table
Your sharp alright
But no one is asking so leave it alone
Leave it alone, can we？
No one is asking so leave it alone
Leave it alone, can we？
Loose lips sink ships
Don't look at me. I'm only breathing
Don't look at me, I'm indiscreet
Don't look at me. I'm only breathing
Don't look at me, I'm indiscreet
Your sharp alright
But no one is asking so leave it alone
Leave it alone, can we？
No one is asking so leave it alone
Leave it alone, can we？
Loose lips sink ships
Can we show a little discipline？
Can we show a little discipline？
Can we, can we？
Loose lips sink ships
Can we show a little discipline？
Can we show a little discipline？
Can we, can we？
Loose lips sink ships
14.All Dolled-Up In Straps
Lyricist：Berninger Matthew Donald, Dessner Bryce David
I think I saw you riding in a car
You looked happy for a woman
Black fingers in your mouth and a white
And a white pearl choker
My head plays it over and over
Don't interrupt me
I think I saw you reaching for a glass
With your lanky white arms
Nothing else moves that way
Are you kidding me？
My head plays it over and over
Don't interrupt me
All dolled-up in straps, all colored in
Now, love, where have you been？
Dolled-up in straps, all colored in
Now, love, where have you been？
Where have you been？
I think I saw you walking in the city
Hips like boys
The sun fell behind you and never stood up
My head plays it over and over
I think I heard you singing
Oh poor sky, don't cry on me
Did somebody break your heart again？
Oh poor sky, don't cry on me
Are you gonna fall apart again？
My head plays it over and over
All dolled-up in straps, all colored in
Now, love, where have you been？
Dolled-up in straps, all colored in
Now, love, where have you been？
Where have you been？
Oh poor sky, don't cry on me
Did somebody break your heart again？
Oh poor sky, don't cry on me
Did somebody break your heart again？
Oh poor sky, don't cry on me
Are you gonna fall apart again？
Oh poor sky, don't cry on me
Are you gonna fall apart again？
15.Driver, Surprise Me
Lyricist：Matthew Berninger, Aaron Brooking Dessner
Put the pervert in a suit, take him out and light him up
Get him out of your system and warm your brand new bones
Sweep him in a shopping bag, call a car
And take him slow through NoLIta, driver, surprise me
Any rose red whore with impeccable taste
We'll take the place over and let him go
Driver, surprise me, whatever works for you
I'm brand new and reinvented
Without a scratch, daisy fresh and arrow straight
That's a beautiful name
Can I take it because I don't remember anyone？
And nothing reminds me
I'm a brand new house, red girl swings somewhere else
Driver, surprise me
Any rose red whore with impeccable taste
We'll take the place over, let him go
We'll let him blow in the eyes, we'll let him float in the
drinks
Of the beautiful boys and the beautiful girls
I'll find her jewelry in my room
I'll find her voice in my mouth
I'll wear her clothes until she comes home
I'll find her number in my phone
Driver, darling, driver
Driver, darling, driver
Driver, darling, driver
Let her take me home
I'll find her jewelry in my room
I'll find her voice in my mouth
I'll wear her clothes until she comes home
16.Wasp Nest
You're cussing a storm in a cocktail dress
Your mother wore when she was young
Red sun saint around your neck
A wet martini in a paper cup
You're a wasp nest, you're a wasp nest
Your eyes are broken bottles
And I'm afraid to ask
And all your wrath and cutting beauty
You're poison in the pretty glass
You're a wasp nest, you're a wasp nest
You're all humming live wires under your killing clothes
Get over here, I wanna kiss your skinny throat
You're a wasp nest, you're a wasp nest
17.You Done It Again, Virginia
You had fun but you couldn't get him out of the car
I guess mama's boy's only go so far
You went in and put a record on
To make it sound like someone was home
And thanked yourself for pouring yourself a drink
You try to figure out and laugh yourself to the showers
Burn yourself alive and join the monster squad
They say in this place you can reinvent yourself
Well, you've done it again, Virginia
Made another masterpiece while I was dreaming
How does it feel to feel like you？
Brilliant sugar, brilliant sugar, brilliant sugar, turn over
A cool, tall, drink of water is all you ever wanted to be
And if you had another wish to wish you'd be fun and moving
But you can't talk to people, right？ You can't tell a story
You're tall, you're long legged and your heart's full of liquor
Me and everybody are just ice in a glass
Try to figure out and laugh yourself to the showers
Burn yourself alive and join the monster squad
They say in this place you can reinvent yourself
Well, you've done it again, Virginia
Made another masterpiece while I was dreaming
How does it feel to feel like you？
Brilliant sugar, brilliant sugar, brilliant sugar, turn over
Well, you've done it again, Virginia
Made another masterpiece while I was dreaming
How does it feel to feel like you？
Brilliant sugar, brilliant sugar, brilliant sugar, turn over
18.Silent Night
Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
Silent night, holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!
Christ, the Saviour is born
Christ, the Saviour is born
Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth '
