i should live in salt

The National

[Verse 1]
Don't make me read your mind, you should know me better than that
It takes me too much time, you should know me better than that
You're not that much like me, you should know me better than that
We have different enemies, but you should know me better than that

[Pre-Chorus]
I should leave it alone, but you're not around.
I should leave it alone, but you're not around.

[Verse 2]
Can't you write it on wall? You should know me better than that
There's no room to write it all, you should know me better than that
Can you turn the TV down? You should know me better than that
There's too much crying in the sound, I should know you better than that

[Pre-Chorus]
I should leave it alone, but you're not around.
I should leave it alone, but you're not around.

[Chorus]
I should live in salt for leaving you behind, behind

[Verse 3]
You think about something so much, you should know me better than that
Start this slide out of touch, you should know me better than that
Tell yourself it's only noise, you should know me better than that
Learn to appreciate the void, you should know me better than that

[Chorus]
I should live in salt for leaving you behind, behind
I should live in salt for leaving you behind, behind

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
I should live in salt for leaving you behind, behind
