Lyrics The National

The National

Anna Freud

Everyone is watching

But nobody is watching for you

I don't wanna turn it on

It only makes me sad for you

I know you can play piano

That was just a talent show

I've never known you like I know you

I never wanted you to go

You're on the rocks in a two-piece suit

The dead location of the dying suit

You gave Lawrence a big salute

Texas brought them to their knees

Indiana pushes you on the stairs

Your independent declaration sounded too much like a prayer

But I'll wake up and wait there for you

I'll wait there for you

Anna Freud

No confidence in Anna

Anna Freud

Remember what they said to you

Everyone will know us now

We love you babe, you make us proud

Don't come home without he crowd

Don't come back to long this town

We always knew you'd let us down

Don't come back without the crown

Anna Freud

No confidence in Anna

Anna Freud

But I'll wake up and wait there for you

I'll wait there for you
