Artist/Band: The National
Lyrics for Song: Humiliation
Lyrics for Album: Trouble Will Find Me [2013]



I survived the dinner

And the air went thinner

I retired to the briars by the pool

It gets so loud



If I die this instant

Taken from a distance

They would probably list it down

Among other things 'round town



Got my rings around me

I got baby to pound me

I see stars and go weak

My baby cries and lays me down



In the skies over black Venice

I see eyes of a white menace

The surprise of the week

Is that I never heard the sound



All the L.A. women

Fall asleep while swimmin'

I got paid to fish 'em out

And then one day I lost the job



And I cried a little

I got fried a little

Then she laid her eyes on mine

And she said, "Babe, you're better off"



I got my rings around me

I got baby to pound me

I see stars and go weak

My baby cries and lays me down



In the skies over black Venice

I see eyes of a white menace

The surprise of the week

Is that I never heard the sound



Tunnel vision lights my way

Lead a little life today



As the free-fall advances

I'm the moron who dances

Ah

I was teething on roses

I was in guns and noses

Ah



Under the withering white skies of humiliation

Under the withering white skies of humiliation



Tunnel vision lights my way

Lead a little life today

Tunnel vision lights my way

Lead a little life today



She wore blue velvet

Said she can't help it

She wore blue velvet

Said she can't help it

She wore blue velvet

Said she can't help it
