Mistaken For Strangers Lyrics - Boxer - The National

You have to do it running but you do everything that they ask you to 

'Cause you don't mind seeing yourself in a picture 

As long as you look faraway, as long as you look removed 

Showered and blue-blazered, fill yourself with quarters 

Showered and blue-blazered, fill yourself with quarters 

You get mistaken for strangers by your own friends 

When you pass them at night under the silvery, silvery citibank lights 

Arm in arm in arm and eyes and eyes glazing under 

Oh, you wouldn't want an angel watching over 

Surprise, surprise they wouldn't wanna watch 

Another uninnocent, elegant fall into the unmagnificent lives of adults

Make up something to believe in your heart of hearts 

So you have something to wear on your sleeve of sleeves 

So you swear you just saw a feathery woman 

Carry a blindfolded man through the trees 

Showered and blue-blazered, fill yourself with quarters 

Showered and blue-blazered, fill yourself with quarters 

You get mistaken for strangers by your own friends 

When you pass them at night under the silvery, silvery citibank lights 

Arm in arm in arm and eyes and eyes glazing under 

Oh, you wouldn't want an angel watching over 

Surprise, surprise they wouldn't wanna watch 

Another uninnocent, elegant fall into the unmagnificent lives of adults
