This is the last time

 I'm a little obsessed with this album, this past week actually.  The National "Trouble will Find Me", it's almost 3 years old.  But I keep listening to all of the lyrics, the entire album is so good.  I especially feel a little connection with this one.  Track #7, This is the Last time.  ....I never think before I jump.





Oh, when I lift you up
You feel like a hundred times yourself
I wish everybody knew
What's so great about you
Oh, but your love is such a swamp
You don't think before you jump
And I said I wouldn't get sucked in
I
This is the last time
Oh, don't tell anyone I'm here
I've got time and no one near
I was thinking that you'd call somebody
Closer to you
Oh, but your love is such a swamp
You're the only thing I want
And I said I wouldn't cry about it
I
This is the last time
This is the last time
We were so under the brine
We were so vacant and kind
We were so under the brine
We were so vacant
We were so under the brine
We were so out of our minds
We were so under the brine
We were so vacant
Oh, when I lift you up
You feel like a hundred times yourself
I wish everybody knew
What's so great about you
Oh, but your love is such a swamp
You don't think before you jump
And I said I wouldn't get sucked in
I
I won't be vacant anymore
I won't be waitin' anymore
I won't be vacant anymore
I won't be waitin' anymore
I won't be vacant anymore
I won't be waitin' anymore
I won't be vacant anymore
I won't be waitin' anymore
Jenny, I am in trouble
Can't get these thoughts out of me
Jenny, I'm seeing double
I know this changes everything
Jenny, I am in trouble
