I’ve seen and I’ve heard quite enough
The world spins too fast and I’ve tried keeping up
But I’m always in last stuck behind, sweeping up
With a broom and a bag just collecting the dust
I climb on the roof and I watch
All of the miniature people wake up
Hide in the subway car, sleep on the bus
Try and get out alive and never once
Do they open their eyes to see clear enough
And darling, haven’t you heard
No one ever listens to the words
A work of art impressive at its worst
Asking twice as much as I deserve
Cut and clean, I ache and I heave
And I'm sick but I'll get better babe
Won't you be kind now, won't you be sweet
Cause I’m small and not as strong as I try to be
But you’re looking to me and it’s all that I see
And I like to think you’re just that I need
Cause for a second I thought you believed
And that made all the difference babe
Guess you give what you want to receive
And I die a slow death so you’ll notice me
The crowd is impressed and the critics confess
That from the back row looks like the real thing
But you know better than that, don’t you babe
Yeah, you know better than that, don’t you babe
Oh, you know better than that, don’t you babe

The sweetness of the harmony and beauty of the tracks made me have to purchase this album. The vocals float like ethereal sprites with compelling warmness yet a certain captivating sadness as well. This is what Americana should sound like... this is what country should sound like... for it's so real and emotionally delivered... yet absolutely gorgeous. theexplodingogre

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
