Slipped Lyrics - Trouble Will Find Me - The National

I'm in the city you hated 

My eyes are falling 

Counting the clicks with the living dead 

My eyes are red 

I'm in the crush and I hate it 

My eyes are falling 

I'm having trouble inside my skin 

I try to keep my skeletons in 

Is it weird to be back in the south? 

And can they even tell 

That the city girl was ever there 

Or anywhere

I'm having trouble inside my skin 

I try to keep my skeletons in 

I'll be your friend 

And a f*ck up and everything, 

But I'll never be 

Anything you ever want me to be. 

I keep coming back here where everything slipped 

But I will not spill my guts out 

I keep coming back here where everything slipped 

But I will not spill my guts out 

I don't need any help to be breakable, believe me 

I know nobody else who can laugh along to any kind of joke 

I won't need any help to be lonely when you leave me 

It'll be easy to cover 

Gather my skeletons far inside 

It'll be summer in Dallas 

Before I realize 

Photos 

I don't want you to grieve 

But I want you to sympathize (alright) 

I can't blame you for losing 

Your mind for a little while (so did I) 

I don't want you to change 

But I want you to recognize (that I) 

It'll be easy to cover 

Gather your skeletons far inside 

It'll be summer in Dallas 

Before you realize 

That I'll never be 

Anything you ever want me to be 

I keep coming back here where everything slipped 

But I will not spill my guts out 

I keep coming back here where everything slipped 

But I will not spill my guts out
