Every time I sleep there's someone singing
Got a little lost in moonlight garden drinking
Don't leave me alone now I've left you alone
But that's a little unsimplicity I'm living
And then I find in my feet that I don't fall so good
On account that there was still much worth
And now I find I'm a sea and I'm drying up
To disappear back in to the earth
I'll disappear back into the earth
Calm, honest, unnappreciated
She's in a tunnel with her heart reverberated
But I'm a true fucker-upper by the bone
Now when I'm singing I will be singing alone
But then the sun is out in my big beam dream
We stand around by her kitchen sink
This is the final stop on my memory train
Every morning waking gutter brained
Every morning I'm a gutter brain
I know it's an awkward distant bout
With all these things that we have learned to live without
Call and sink into a crackle on the phone
And every time I'm flying home I pray I will not die alone
Oh and I lose my grin when the air gets thin
Then I travel over gravel to my storage tank
With a bottle and a picture on my wall
And I see it in the mirror every foggy morn
I seem a little warmer in the foggy morn
Oh it sure is cruel to duel with doubt
And a sureness we already live without
So the tape over my mouth is new today
To ensure I don't throw something else away
Say the rule of the game was to flow by day
Pretty roads gone rocky, it's a crooked cane
I wish the two ten could be my daily roam
This is the hard soft sound of my sinking song
Branch up a river, we'll split on ways
Something came with, rafted on
It ropes me and chokes me until I turn baby blue
But this ribbon round my heart is a piece of you
This rhythm in my heart is a piece of you
This river through my heart is a piece of you
And I'll float like a rock in a swimming pool
Julien Baker is an acquired taste - assuming of course you’ve acquired great taste in singer songwriters… beautiful, devastating, honest, insightful… I’ve not heard a single song of hers that hasn’t left me in absolute awe. crisbroadhurst
