"Available" lyrics

"Available"
(originally by The National)

Did you clean yourself for me last night?
Put the water out and donned a marigold
In your hair to bring me here
And tie one on you

Did you dress me down and liquor me up
To make me last for the minute when the red comes over you?
Like it does when you're filled with love
Or whatever you call it

Do you feel alone when I'm in my head?
While you wait for me to take my breath?
Do you still feel clean
When the only dirt is the dirt I left?
How can you blame yourself when I did everything I wanted to?

You just made yourself available
You just made yourself available

Why did you dress me down?
Why did you dress me down?
Why did you dress me down?
Why did you dress me down?
Why did you dress me down?
Dress me down?
Why did you dress me down?
Dress me down?
Why did you dress me down?
Dress me down?
Dressed me down and liquor me up?
And liquor me up?
And liquor me up?
And liquor me up?
