Lyrics The Antlers – Nashua
Text:
You shouldn’t wait
You couldn’t walk
It wasn’t written out in chalk
It wasn’t fate
The lacerations in your spine
But thats no way an excuse
I could have been so much better for you
You-o-ou should take it out on me
But you won’t take it out on me
You should hate the water
You should hate the world
You-o-ou need to cut me out
Because I’ll only let you down
And you deserve attention
I can’t give you that.
I shouldn’t feel that every week
I’m making promises I can’t keep
Well that’s not fair
That’s not right
Cause you’re not sleeping much at night
But I’m no good use
I should have been so much better for you
And all I’ve done in half a year
Is send one letter out of here
On your birthday Septembers end
And I haven’t sent again
Because it’s no use
Because I can’t seem to stitch you
You-o-ou should take it out on me
You should hate the water
You should hate the world
You-o-ou need to cut me out
Because I’ll only let you down
And you deserve attention
I can’t give you that.
Because I’m no good news (?)
I should have been so much better for you
