the national - bat child lyrics
lyrics transcribed from live performance on 3/6/24
[pre+chorus]
you can find yourself out of the corner
you can leave the monastery
you can slide down the spiral staircase in your finest black suit and feathers
[chorus]
i can see why
you’d rather sleep inside while everything out there is burning
stay up all night
try not to bump into anyone you know ’til morning
[verse 1]
how are you supposed to go to work when you don’t even understand the lead blowers
maybe you’ll come up with a perfect song to sell to vampire franchises
[chorus]
i can see why
you’d rather sleep insidе while everything out thеre is burning
stay up all night
you try not to bump into anyone you know ’til morning
so much to hide
you play close attention to silence like a scientist
i’m not surprised
your vicious [?] daylight
[bridge]
bat child
people come out here you say you’re not yourself today
bat child
you’ve been saying that every day since you were a baby
bat child
you don’t have to know who you are until you’re not
bat child
every single day ’til the last is gonna be pretty delicate
[pre+chorus]
you can find yourself out of the corner
you can leave the monastery
you can slide down the spiral staircase in your black collar suit and feathers
[chorus]
i can see why
you’d rather hide inside while everything out there is burning
stay up all night
try not to bump into anyone you know ’til morning
so much to hide
you pay close attention to silence like a scientist
i’m not surprised
your vicious [?] daylight
[bridge]
bat child
you say you’re not yourself today
bat child
you’ve been saying that every day since you were a baby
bat child
you don’t have to know who you are until you’re not
bat child
every single day ’til the last is gonna be pretty delicate
[outro]
bat child
it’s gonna be pretty delicate
bat child
it’s gonna be pretty delicate
bat child
bat child
