The New National Anthem

Drag my hand behind you like a chain behind a truck
Sparks over your carpet while I chase you through the darkness
Somebody's supposed to fall in love, but nobody even calls

Somebody's supposed to

Tear this place apart until you find me hiding, silently I wait
You'll be excited just to see me someday, everything's ok

Summer in gold, fall the colors at the dark
A mother tells her son: Darling, look at the sparks
You hold my attention without even trying
A beautiful reflection from firework eyes
But, never means forever
Desperation and hanging in the backyard at night

Somebody's supposed to fall in love
Tear this place apart until you find me hiding, silenty I wait
You'll be excited just to see me someday, everything's ok

Don't forget to bleed so slowly
Haunted hearts we melt over the fabric of your floor
I'm holding her just like she's gold, but I've been running from the Sun
Oh, no, no
And if I ever catch the ones who hurt you
I, I'm hoping that God looks away this time
So, why would I let you go?
Why would I let you go? Let you go

Tear apart this place apart until you find me hiding, silently I wait
You'll be excited just to see me someday, everything's ok
