The girl across the hallway is a whore
The boys along the boulevard line up at her door
But she's shy despite the miles she might have worn
She draws the blinds and turns off all the lights when she performs
The woman at the counter in the store
She’ll give you all you ask for at a price you can afford
She’ll turn you into gold and keep you warm
And if you give it back to her, she’ll make you feel at home
She took me in and made me as her own
Showed me love like I have never known
Now all my wounds have faded and I’m cleaner than before
The girl you gave your heart to is a whore
You’re not her type, she doesn’t mind she’s generous and sure
And though it feels so right, she was never yours
She’ll give you what you ask for then leave when she gets bored
She took me in and made me as her own
Showed me love like I have never known
Now all my wounds have faded and I’m cleaner than before
You’ll get it babe, the whole damn thing, it’s yours
But the angel that you pray to is a whore
And she took me to the altar that you carved her out of stone
And washed me of my sins and made me whole
She took me in and made me as her own
Showed me love like I have never known
Now all my wounds have faded and I’m cleaner than before

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
