NP: The National - Boxer

Listened to this album 3 times through at work today, forgot how much his voice does for a tired morning

I can't get a break to save my life. I'm throwing in the towel

All I've learned is to keep my mouth shut. No matter what it means to you, it means nothing to anyone else. No one will ever betray their own convenience for anyone else

I'm just so beaten by all of everything here where I've come back to. Treat strangers like friends, and friends like strangers; this is all you need to get ahead. This is what I've learned this past year.
