I saw a strange light in the sky.
A fireball burning brightly.
I wished the truck on the overpass would
Tumble down upon me.
The truth is just a piece of coal dressed as gold.
I turn the heat up to feel the sting.
My skin it felt the same.
I felt the joint in my shoulder blade.
It seemed to feel the same.
I felt an ancient scream come out of my mouth.
What’s the margin for error?
I give myself a little.
Tightrope walker, miracle clinger seeking acquittal.
Who’s to say I don’t care?
I’m only drenched in holy water that you stole from your father because you couldn’t help yourself.
And the arc of our covenant was a rise and fall.
A tailspin on my end we never saw coming.
The scar on my lip I got when I was a kid transferred to you.
The truth is just a piece of coal dressed as gold.
i forgot how good this record is, i picked up the vinyl at a record store figuring i would listen again eventually, and here i am the same night enjoying every track. definitely worth listening!! katt2
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
