The National - The System Only Dreams in Total Darkness Lyrics
Official




Maybe I listen more than you think

And I can tell that somebody sold you

We said we'd never let anyone in

We said we'd only die of lonely secrets



The system only dreams in total darkness

Why are you hiding from me?

We're in a different kind of thing now

All night you're talking to God



I thought that this would all work out after a while

Now you're saying that I'm asking for too much attention

Also, no other faith is light enough for this place

We said we'd only die of lonely secrets



The system only dreams in total darkness

Why are you hiding from me?

We're in a different kind of thing now

All night you're talking to God



I cannot explain it

Oh, any other, any other way

I cannot explain it

Oh, any other, any other way



The system only dreams in total darkness

Why are you hiding from me?

We're in a different kind of thing now

All night you're talking to God



I cannot explain it

Oh, any other, any other way

I cannot explain it

Oh, any other, any other way

I cannot explain it

Oh, any other, any other way

I cannot explain it

Oh, any other, any other way
