The National

The National is an indie rock band formed in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1999 and currently based in Brooklyn, New York. The band's lyrics, which have been described as "dark, melancholy and difficult to interpret", are written and sung by Matt Berninger, a baritone. The rest of the band is composed of two pairs of brothers: twins Aaron (guitar and keyboard) and Bryce Dessner (guitar) and Scott (bass) and Bryan Devendorf (drums). The National has been compared to Joy Division, Leonard Cohen, Wilco and Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds. The name of the band was chosen because it "didn't mean anything" and was "benign and meaningless". more »

I'm your hospital, I'm your silver cross
Tell me what to be, tell me how to talk
Patti wasn't lonely, Robert wasn't lost
Put me on a rope, take me for a walk

Roman holiday, every time it rains
Roman holiday, I'll take away your shame

I'm not afraid to tell you, what I want
I'm not afraid of anything, I want it all
Never leave me out here for too long
Put me in your movie, pin me to your wall

Roman holiday, every time it rains
Roman holiday, we're all rainy anyway

She said please, think the best of him
Please, think the best of me
There are police in the museum

Roman holiday, every time it rains
Roman holiday, we don't feel the pain

She said please, think the best of him
Please, think the best of me
There are police in the museum
She said please
