Fashion Coat — The National

In a fashion coat I float down my city Don't you think I look pretty anymore I'll do everything to you but I can hardly come Cause I'm so afraid of you falling

I die fast in this city Outside I die slow

I'm not stupid I swear I read the foreign news to understand my nation You get two options in The You Estates Black city bloodbath or white country rape

I die fast in this city Outside I die slow I die fast in this city Outside I die slow

Everywhere I am is just another thing without you in it

Repeat
