The Room I'm Hiding In Songtext
von Okkervil River

Where once was desperation, now just medication
The bathroom walls have always been so scribbled on, just like your skin
That-that′s the room I'm hiding in, is just a vindication


So hang the flag at half-mast for a blonde girl with a leg cast
We lay up in that unlit room and no one spoke, and no one moved
Until the air filled up with fear, I′ve never felt my body disappear so fast

I burned your dissertation, I spurned the celebration
You'll find me down this dirty hall, I'm hiding behind this silent wall
But in my darkest midnight, I′ll still take an invitation

Oh, I will take an invitation
Oh, I will take an invitation
