"Lit Up (Remix)" lyrics - THE NATIONAL

My bodyguard shows her revolver to anyone who asks
And yeah, she comes to attention when you come up to me too fast
For a little while you'll be here, the only good part of me
For a little while you'll be here

So lit up
Lit up, lit up, alright
I try to untie Manhattan
Lit up
Lit up, lit up, alright
I try to untie

You wear your skirt like a flag and everything surrounds you and it doesn't fade
Nothing like this sound I make
That only lasts the season and only heard by
Bedroom kids who buy it for that reason

'Cause you're the lowlife of the party, bad blood
Bad blood for everybody, I'm in control and I believe

So lit up
Lit up, lit up, alright
I try to untie Manhattan
Lit up
Lit up, lit up, alright
I try to untie
From your bad blood
From your bad blood

'Cause you're the lowlife of the party, bad blood
Bad blood for everybody, I'm in control and I believe

So lit up, lit up
Lit up, lit up, alright
I try to untie Manhattan
Lit up, lit up
Lit up, lit up, alright
I try to untie
