somethings following my step
i can see it moving under the reddest moon
the valley is empty the sun it isn’t rising
they move towards me my other me’s
on tight ropes in straight lines with sharp teeth and open hands
so i’ll slip under another armored sleep another night spent trudging deserts
take my body
takes a better man that’s what the cards said
takes the temperament of an more innocent person
I’m focused so god damned focused on undermining myself
and i could see the needle drop any day now
take my body
just pressed down dirt and the scent of consciousness
still lingers worried on my lips
there is no waking up from this
there is no clarity i see i see nearing my sights
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
Musically this feels more experimental for La Dispute reminding me of their Here, Hear releases. Very atmospheric and easy to lose your self in. Perfect for the next time you’re contemplating your existence. (Also found out the guitarist builds his own pedals and used them on this record; neato!) Mikey
