slip your fingers underneath the stitches of an off-white wedding gown,
I’ll lay you in a marriage bed of haystacks in a bloody briar crown.
our jaws are cauterized with alcohol, soldered shut by smoke,
I don’t want you to return my calls or tell me dirty jokes.
because if I’m being honest…
I haven’t taken my medicine, I’m wasted and staying the night.
I’ll sleep on the floor in my clothes and you’ll hide all your knives,
with the bad dreams and the whiskey.
Tell your friends you don’t miss me— I know you don’t.
Why would you?
drive the length of the state, when the drywall holds my fist,
you were trading silver that you found on someone else’s lips.
So don’t you meet me in the front lawn for a hidden garden kiss,
I see everyone I meet through the lenses on your wrists.
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
Guthrie sounds lovely. It was originally released as a Japan-only bonus track on Little Oblivions. Thanks for sharing these with the fans, can't wait to hear the other two when they are released! Dave Wirth
