Hamilton Leithauser

"I Retired" (lyric video)

While Hamilton Leithauser may have his first solo album landing next week, the Walkmen vocalist spends his time in the new "I Retired" contemplating calling it quits.

The lyric video finds the guy capitulated, crashed out on the ground as he explains how he's lost some sort of personal battle. As the old time doo wop shuffler goes on, he hints at no one truly understanding what this personal war is all about, capping a chorus with the frank admission, "I don't even know myself anymore."

You can find out whether or not Leithauser plans to keep the train rolling by giving the fireworks-poppin' display down below.

As previously reported, Black Hours drops June 3 through Ribbon Music.
