Ashamed of the Story I Told Songtext

von The National

Was it nothing I said?
It's so attractive to be so silent
It keeps the mystery on and it seems
It keeps you hanging on me
Another letter from home
I don't know why I even read it
There's one big question
I don't know why I must repeat it
Maybe I care a little
Perhaps I'm ashamed of the story I told
But you were so eager
Was it so bad for me to say it?
What you wanna hear?
Another letter from home
I don't know why I even read it
There's one big question
I don't know why I must repeat it
Another letter from home
I don't know why I even read it
Another letter from home
I don't know why I even read it
There's one big question
I don't know why I must repeat it
Another letter from home
I don't know why I even read it
There's one big question
I don't know why I must repeat it
Another letter from home
I don't know why I even read it
There's one big question
I don't know why I must repeat it
