    This summer, I met a guy and we became buddies. And then a storm kicked in. He told me all of the sudden that he was very depressed, and I tried to help, of course. He's still depressed, and I'm still trying. But I'm his only friend and I'm the only one who knows about all his troubles. We don't live in the same city, so I don't know what I can do and I have my own problems. All of this became really toxic, and it's too much for me, and there's really nothing I can do. It makes me very anxious. But this song helps me dealing with my emotions. The lyrics are extremely relatable. Thanks, The National.

      You will never be able to help him. At least not the way you want to. And you already did all you can do. Carrying on your sholders other peoples pain can make yourself depressed and anxious, and now you cant even deal with yourself, let alone with someone else. Its been a year, so i hope he is ok and you are out of that situation, and living your life to the fullest. Take care.

    When I went to Boston calling last year the national started playing during sunset, it was a beautiful flawless day around 80 degrees. i won the tickets and brought someone with me. I had told them I really only wanted to see the national and the killers.. show ment alot to me. Figures 15 minutes into the nationals performance the girl wants her jacket that's 20 min walk away. I was having one of those moments where between the beautiful sunset and show and his voice, one of those moments I'll never forget. And i cut it so short to go get this girls jacket. Dont be that girl, ladies. We will never forget it

    Beautiful song. About saying goodbye when you arent being recognized. Imagination is a gorgeous thing but at some point you have to cut your losses. If you truehearted you usually cut it too late & there is no going back. Here's raising a Pink Rabbit to You, May the Next on Be Better.

    Also, "when the sound kicks out" not the sun. This is debatable but is strongly feel it's "sound" (example "we hold ourselves together with our arms around the stereo" - apartment song) (example- " Bona Drag was still on") I know it's LA, but it's the sound (music) that's distracting him, not the sun.

    Let's have a drink,go out on the lash,
    Don't worry about nothing,
    I got some cash.
    We'll go on till we drop,
    In an open shop,
    We aint gonna crack,
    I got your back
    Don't go back o to the darkness,
    I feel your every move
    I hoped it would be faultless,
    How wrong I've been proved.

    some of the lyrics aren't right, here are the corrections:
    1:05 "you were STARING down the street, 'cause you were trying not to crack up"
    1:20 "i love a storm, but i don't love lightning/all the waters coming up, so fast IT'S FRIGHTENING."
    1:47 "i was STARING down the street, 'cause i was trying not to crack"
    3:05 "you were STARING down the street, 'cause you were trying not to crack up"
    3:10 "Bona Drag WAS still on"
    3:15 "now i only think about Los Angeles when the SOUND kicks out" (repeat for all)
    3:40 "A needle in the dark" (only the last refrain says "the needle")
    bonus: "Bona Drag" is a 1990 compilation album by Morrisey; the title means "Nice outfit" in the Polari slang language.

    I couldn't find quiet
    I went out in the rain
    I was just soakin' my head to unrattle my brain
    Somebody said you disappeared in a crowd
    I didn't understand then
    I don't understand now
    Am I the one you think about when you're
    Sitting in your faintin' chair drinking pink rabbits?
    Am I the one you think about when you're
    Sitting in your faintin' chair drinking pink rabbits?
    And everybody was gone
    You were standin' in the street 'cause you were tryin' not to crack up
    It wasn't like a rain it was more like a sea
    I didn't ask for this pain it just came over me
    I love a storm, but I don't love lightning
    All the waters coming up so fast, that's right
    Am I the one you think about when you're
    Sitting in your faintin' chair drinking pink rabbits?
    Am I the one you think about when you're
    Sitting in your faintin' chair drinking pink rabbits?
    And everybody was gone
    I was standing in the street 'cause I was trying not to crack
    I was solid gold
    I was in the fight
    I was coming back from what seemed like a ruin
    I couldn't see you coming so far
    I just turn around and there you are
    I'm so surprised you want to dance with me now
    I was just getting used to living life without you around
    I'm so surprised you want to dance with me now
    You always said I held you way too high off the ground
    You didn't see me I was falling apart
    I was a white girl in a crowd of white girls in the park
    You didn't see me I was falling apart
    I was a television version of a person with a broken heart
    You didn't see me I was falling apart
    I was a white girl in a crowd of white girls in a park
    You didn't see me I was falling apart
    I was a television version of a person with a broken heart
    And everybody was gone
    You were standin' in the street
    Cause you were trying not to crack up
    Now I only think about los angeles when the sun kicks out
    Now I only think about los angeles when the sun kicks out
    You said it would be painless
    The needle in the dark
    You said it would be painless
    It wasn't that at all
    You said it would be painless
    The needle in the dark
    You said it would be painless
    It wasn't that at all (when the sun kicks out)
    You said it would be painless
    The needle in the dark (when the sun kicks out)
    You said it would be painless
    It wasn't that at all

    There are always disputes as to the lyrics of this song.
    I also hear "I was coming back from what seemed like a ruse" instead of ruin.
    Turn volume way up and you can hear a "s" sound not an "n"
    It also kinda makes more sense in the way he says he was solid gold, in the fight. Like he was finally over her but it was a ruse in the end cuz she just came back into his life suddenly and now hes back to square one.

    I love that line: 'I was a white girl in a crowd of white girls in the park'. This takes me back to 2003-2004, bear with me. I was 13-14 then. That's a beautiful, heartbeaking image. Imagine you, with your friends, breaking down from someone who has broken your heart but going along with it with your friends; not noticeable to a passer-by. A white girl in a crowd of white girls in the park
    Brilliant.

    The lyrics are a little wrong, I believe. They make more sense to me as:
    All the water’s coming up so fast, it’s frightening
    (Rhymes better and fits the context better.)
    You said it would be painless... the needle in the doll
    (reference to a voodoo doll of himself, as an analogy for claiming a breakup won’t hurt, and “doll” rhymes better with the next line.)
