The National
Ashamed of the Story I Told
[Verse 1: Matt Berninger]
Was it nothing I said?
It's so attractive to be so silent
It keeps the mystery up
And it seems it keeps you hanging on me
[Chorus: Matt Berninger, Scott Devendorf & Aaron Dessner]
Another letter from home
I don't know why I even read it
It's one big question
I don't know why I must repeat it
[Verse 2: Matt Berninger]
Maybe I care a little
Perhaps I'm ashamed of the story I told
But she was so eager
Is it so bad for me to say what you wanna hear?
[Chorus: Matt Berninger, Scott Devendorf & Aaron Dessner]
Another letter from home
I don't know why I even read it
It'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
[Outro: Matt Berninger, Scott Devendorf & Aaron Dessner]
Another letter from home
I don't know why I even read it
It'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
It'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
It's one big question
I don't know why I must repeat it
