Lit Up - The National

My bodyguard shows her revolver to anyone who asks

And yeah, she comes to attention when you come up to me too fast

For a little while you'll be here, the only good part of me

For a little while you'll be here

So lit up, lit up, lit up, alright

I try to untie Manhattan

Lit up, lit up, lit up, alright

I try to untie

You wear your skirt like a flag

And everything surrounds you and it doesn't fade

Nothing like this sound I make that only lasts the season

And only heard by bedroom kids who buy it for that reason

'Cause you're the lowlife of the party, bad blood

Bad blood for everybody, I'm in control and I believe

So lit up, lit up, lit up, alright

I try to untie Manhattan

Lit up, lit up, lit up, alright

I try to untie from your bad blood

From your bad blood

'Cause you're the lowlife of the party, bad blood

Bad blood for everybody, I'm in control and I believe

Cuz you're the low life of the party, bad blood

Bad blood for everybody

I'm in control and I believe

So lit up, lit up, lit up, lit up, alright

I try to untie Manhattan

Lit up, lit up, lit up, lit up, alright

I try to untie
