The New National Anthem Songtext
von Pierce the Veil

Drag my hand behind you like a train behind a truck
Sparks over your carpet while I chase you through the darkness
Somebody′s supposed to fall in love, but nobody even calls
Somebody's supposed to tear this place apart
Until you find me hiding, silently I wait
You′ll be excited just to see me someday, everything's okay
Summer and gold throw their colors at the dark
A mother tells her son, "Darling look at the sparks"
You hold my attention without even trying
A beautiful reflection from firework eyes
But never means forever
Desperation and hanging in the backyard at night


(Somebody's supposed to fall in love)
Tear this place apart until you find me hiding silently I wait
You′ll be excited just to see me someday, everything′s okay
And don't forgot to bleed (so slowly)
Haunted hearts, we melt over the fabric of your floor
I′m holding her just like she's gold but I′ve been running from sun
And if I ever catch the ones who hurt you, I
I'm hoping that God looks away this time (so)
Why would I let you go? (Why would I let you go)
Let you go
Tear this place apart until find me hiding, silently I wait
You′ll be excited just to see me someday, Everything's okay
