Start a War

The National The National

We expected something
Something better than before
We expected something more
Do you really think you can just put it in a safe
Behind a painting, lock it up and leave
Do you really think you can just put it in a safe
Behind a painting, lock it up and leave
Walk away now
And you're gonna start a war

Whatever went away I'll get it over again
I'll get money, I'll get funny again
Whatever went away
I'll get it over again
I'll get money, I'll get funny again
Walk away now
And you're gonna start a war

We expected something
Something better than before
We expected something more
We were always weird
But I never had to hold you
By the edges like I do now
We were always weird
But I never had to hold you
By the edges like I do now
Walk away now
And you're gonna start a war

Whatever went away I'll get it over again
I'll get money, I'll get funny again
Whatever went away I'll get it over again
I'll get money, I'll get funny again
Walk away now
And you're gonna start a war
Walk away now
And you're gonna start a war
