half return

{if you're looking for THAT part it's 1:27.}

lyrics
———
Staring down the barrel of the hot sun
Shining with the sheen of a shotgun
Carol has a little if we need some
Joyous rays, we wanna come
Hanging your jeans with a clothes pin
Skin still wet, still on my skin
Mango in your mouth, juice dripping
Shoulder of your shirtsleeve slipping
Christmas Eve with your mother and sis
Don't wanna fight but your mother insists
Dog's white teeth slice right into my fist
Drive to the ER and you put me on my wrist
Grocery store list, now you get this
Brunch, had calls and messages
I don't wanna be the owner of your fantasy
I just wanna be a part of your family
And I don't wanna talk about anything
I don't wanna talk about anything
I wanna kiss, kiss your eyes again
Wanna witness your eyes looking
I don't wanna talk about anyone
I don't wanna talk about anyone
I wanna sleep in your car while you're driving
Lay on your lap whеn I'm crying
Circle of pine and riddle
Circlе of moss and fire smoke
Fan on the ceiling like a wheel spoke
Push the clutch in and I pull the choke
Wanna listen to the sound of you blinking
Wanna listen to your hands soothe
Listen to your heart beating
Listen to the way you move
And I don't wanna talk about anything
I don't wanna talk about anything
I wanna kiss, kiss your eyes again
Wanna witness your eyes looking
I don't wanna talk about anyone
I don't wanna talk about anyone
Wanna sleep in your car while you're driving
Lay in your lap when I'm crying
{♪}
Weren't we the stars in Heaven?
Weren't we the salt in the sea?
Dragging the newborn mountain
Didn't you believe in me?
Yeah, you held me the whole way through
When I couldn't say the words like you
I was scared indigo but I wanted to
I was scared indigo but I wanted to
And I don't wanna talk about anything
I don't wanna talk about anything
I wanna kiss, kiss your eyes again
Wanna witness your eyes looking
I don't wanna talk about anyone
I don't wanna talk about anyone
I wanna sleep in your car while you're driving
Lay in your lap when I'm crying

Adrianne Lenker - Anything (Live for WFUV)

Adrianne Lenker - Forward Beckon Rebound Ormond Castle

lyrics 
——

shadow, shadow, what a show
every other step, there's a cross-eyed crow
half return, half return
Minneapolis soft white snow
35 bridge, hometown
half return, half return

standing in the yard, dressed like a kid
the house is white and the lawn is dead
the lawn is dead, the lawn is dead

Illinois toll road, Indiana plain
roll the windows down, shoot at the change
half return, half return
honey in your mouth when you gave me my name
tears in your eyes when you pull it like a chain
half return, half return

standing in the yard, dressed like a kid
the house is white and the lawn is dead
the lawn is dead, the lawn is dead

half return, half return
rusty swing set, plastic slide
Push me up and down, take me for a ride

standing in the yard, dressed like a kid
the house is white and the lawn is dead
the lawn is dead, the lawn is dead

Adrianne Lenker - Half Return (Live for KEXP)

Almost musical theatre style pop song. Written from a viewpoint of a friend watching a friend get strung along by a married guy, but she hasn’t worked that out yet.

She’s Holding Out For Him

BREAK - Alex G

2011

gonna crack a rib
when i get home
im gonna bury you
in my favorite hole
i made a bloody mess
in the kitchen sink
i tried to fix myself
but i didn't think
they said
“we just want to talk with you”
“we just want to walk you through”
oh i dont want to see you, babe
i wanna be in trapped in you
oh i dont want to be, babe
but im gonna pretend for you
went to paint our nails
went to keep it real
cuz honey all i know
is what i feel
she’s looking for friend of a friend
he said he’ll hook me up
he told me what he has
but they say
“leave your body, leave your mind”
“dont you know you’re out of time?”
in his room, in his bed
you cant hear what he said
he looks like dirt
tastes like trash
honey i know you can float right past
oh i dont want to see you, babe
i wanna be trapped in you
oh i dont want to be, babe
but im gonna pretend for you
