it’s been a long while since the words came quick
my heart was narrow and my skin was thick
blessed and i’m cursed by the feeling
i can’t forget all the sparks i’ve seen
questioning what i thought i knew
if i’d seen it coming i’d have thought it through
built up to ruin by the simple fear
losing everything that i hold dear
maybe i was young or just naive
now i’m not sure what to believe
nothing comes as easy as i thought this was
nothing turns out like the dream of it does
i thought i had it all figured out
but i can’t distinguish truth from the doubt
doesn’t come as easy as i thought this was
nothing turns out like the dream of it does

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
