"I want to believe in everything you believe"



Saddest and most desperate line in the whole catalogue imo

Sorrow found me when I was young

Sorrow waited, sorrow won



Devastating.

I agree and would personally count TWFM in that streak as well.

This is pretty much tied with OK Computer and Lucinda Williams' Car Wheels on a Gravel Road for my favorite album of all time.

Even though it's not my favorite, Sorrow is truly the most perfect, quintessential National song.

I STILL OWE MONEY, TO THE MONEY, TO THE MONEY I OWE



^ That line frightens me because I know it will only resonate more with me as time goes on. Really can't beat Bloodbuzz Ohio either, so many perfect songs here.
