lyrics

Oh the solstice is approaching so grow out your skin,
and the days are getting shorter until they get long again,

and so I say,
“Until we have our day,
we are just talking graves, we are just talking graves”
and you say that people are all the same,
yeah when they grow old,
we’ll see their faces in all the cracks
and all the cracks
Oh the solstice is approaching so grow out your skin,
and the days are getting longer until they get short again,

and I’m starting to realize, that you were right,
oh and I’m starting to realize, oh the whole time,
That you were right,
That you were right,
Oh you’re always right.
And oh I’m circling on an asteroid with the world in my pocket,
And I’m connected at the limbs, oh I’m connected at the limbs,
So I’ll see you when you come by, and I’ll see you again after the first time,
and I’ll see you again,
and I’ll see you again,
on the other side after we have died.

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
