The National
I’ll Still Destroy You (Live at Berkeley 9/24/18)
[Spoken: Matt Berninger]
Alright
[Extended Intro]
[Verse 1]
It's so easy to set off
The molecules and the caplets
They all have something against me
Nothing I do makes me feel different
[Pre-Chorus 1]
This one's like your sister's best friends
In a bath calling you to join them
Can't avoid them
This one's like your mother's arms
When she was young and sunburned in the '80s
It lasts forever
[Verse 2]
The more level they have me
The more I cannot stand me
I have helpless friendships
And bad taste in liquids
[Pre-Chorus 2]
This one's like the wilderness
Without the world, I'm gonna miss those long nights
With the windows open
I keep re-reading the same lines
Always up at 5am every morning
Like a baby
[Chorus]
It's just the lights coming on
It's just the lights coming on
[Bridge]
I have no positions
No point of view or vision
I'm just trying to stay in touch with
Anyone I'm still in touch with
[Pre-Chorus 3]
The sky is getting white
I can't find a lighter anywhere, I'm going crazy
But I'm not crazy
Put your heels against the wall
I swear you got a little bit taller since I saw you
I'll still destroy you
[Chorus]
It's just the lights coming on
It's just the lights coming on
[Instrumental Outro]
