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 okay
 ♪
 Summer and gold throw their colors at the dark
 A mother tells her son: "Darling, look at the sparks"
 But 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 okay
 ♪
 Love, 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)
 So, why would I let you go? (Why would I let you go?)
 Let you go
 Tear this place apart
 Until you find me hiding, silently I wait
 You'll be excited just to see me someday, everything's okay
