LYRICS:
staring down the barrel of the hot sun
shining with the sheen of a shotgun
carol has a little if we need some
joa has a ride if we wanna come
hangin’ your jeans with a clothes pin
skin still wet, still on my skin
mango in your, juice drippin’
shoulder of your shirt sleeve slippin’
christmas eve with your mother and sis
don’t wanna fight, but your mother insists
dog’s white teeth slice right through my fist
drive to the ER and they put me on risk
grocery store list, now you get pissed
unchecked calls and messages
I don’t wanna be the owner of your fantasy
I just wanna be a part of your family
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 lookin
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
circle of pine and red oak, circle of moss and fire smoke
fan on the ceiling like a wheel spoke
push the clutch 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
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 lookin
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
weren’t we the stars in heaven
weren’t we the salt in the sea
dragon in the new warm mountain
didn’t you believe in me?
You held me the whole way through
but I couldn’t say the words like you
I was scared, indigo, but I wanted to
I was scared, indigo, but I wanted to
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 lookin
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
this song is for the girls who give glances out of the corner of their eyes hoping that someone is looking back
i see u and i’m looking! i wish i could say it more
wow.
you’re so real
i started sobbing even more when i read this
i love you yes
"I don't wanna be the owner of your fantasy, *_I just wanna be a part of your family_* "
Right home.
❤
real
I love how she hardly stops singing for more than a second-the words just keep coming and overwhelming.
Did you hear a song called"Mary" with her band Big Thief? It's amazing.
@@shinybeast8946 Yeah! Very similar vocal performance.
At that point of noticing, the lyrics and singing seem like a stream of consciousness that’s so pure
i see it as being overcome with love for someone and all the feelings are washing over you as you look at them
Yes so true you explained me so perfectly
“Sleep in your car while you’re driving” is the most perfectly beautiful, simple metaphor. You completely trust that person with your life even though they could end it an instant. When the relationship is ending, you’re always awake, always aware of any slight or deception, always arguing or “talking” about something, because that trust and love is gone.
Love this. So many beautiful deep thinkers commenting on this vid. ❤️❤️❤️
fuck dude ow
💔
Could the relationship continue if love and trust is recultivated?
@@Goaterd you can always try, given it chance
"weren't we the stars in heaven?
weren't we the salt in the sea?
dragon in the new warm mountain,
didn't you believe in me?"
GOD
dragon in the new born mountain
@@bl_nk5047 haha oops this was beofre i actually looked at the lyrics
@@bl_nk5047dragon in the new warm mountain I thought?
I WAS SCARED INDIGO BUT I WANTED TO
@@bitesized4503 yes you are correct haha
I’m glad that it was a universal experience to listen to this over and over and cry when you first heard it
NO BC I WAS SOBBING MY EYES OUT THE FIRST TIME I HEARD IT (i still do tbh)
you're right
i found it one day and i listened it to on repeat for the rest of the day 🫡
I love you
I am so glad I'm not the only one. It takes just seconds to bring it all back up no matter how long it's been since I last listened
They grew up together.
You start to think about the relationship of these two very different trees, standing next to each other their whole lives.
Oh... wow...
Damn. Right to my soul with that comment. 😭
I grew up with another. She split me in the middle. There it is. And there it goes.
I love how she cradles every single word that she sings, amazing
Ugh, I know... I LOVE it. It's not only the singing though... her WRITING is amazingly impactful... every. word. hits. home.
I had no idea how to describe it but that is exactly what she does
Love "I wanna witness your eyes looking" and "I don't wanna be the owner of your fantasy / I just wanna be a part of your family." Really good song.
This just feels like two souls dancing, holding each other so tightly.
This is genuinely one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever heard.
the song is so the feeling of “it’s so high, it can only go down from there” type feeling. she lists all these beautiful things and bittersweet memories after. this song is just so gorgeous and i find myself coming back to it every five seconds.
I don't know why but I tear up every time she says "I was scared, indigo, but I wanted to". Imagine someone writing this song to you
i always think about that, imagine him listening to this song or having something like this written to you
@@padenspencer god, yeah, so heartwrenching... (indigo's a lady btw, full name is indigo sparke)
Same 😭😭😭 gets me everytime
Oh my god someone would have to put me down like a dog... oh my GOD
my name is indigo, this one hits hard
“I don’t want to talk about anything.” This!!! I would choose your silence over anybody’s voice. I feel such an overwhelming amount of comfort just laying by your side in silence. Your presence alone brings me an indescribable warmth and a sense of joy I don’t feel when I’m around anybody else. I just want to be with YOU.
That’s all we can ask for such a simple but sweet feeling to have with someone. It’s so simple and feels so easy when you have it but when it fades it’s gut wrenching.
Ive been crying for the last 10 minutes, i miss him more than life but he just has no energy to rekindle us
"i wanna listen to the sound of you blinking listen to your hands soothe listen to your heart beating listen to the way you move"... i know im in love with someone when i want to listen to songs like this with them.
“wanna witness your eyes looking” is absolutely amazing
Adrianne, it scares me to think your best work is yet to come.
@@sonicgrub that’s not too bad. it’s better for us :)
!!!!!!!!
you got your wish
Well we were dead wrong on that one 🙃 #CountryAlbumIsGarbage
@@le4chehenry324maybe Symbol but her country album sounds like an old lady dying in an Alzheimer’s ward trying to remember a Hank Williams song.
i still cry every time i hear "i just want to be part of your family"
i can't stop crying listening to this. imagining the things that could've been
We’re all right there with you Conrado
You’re not alone in that feeling...
❤
he gave up on me, what can I say?
feels like a calm foggy fall afternoon. wind touching your face, and remembering the feeling of falling in love with someone for the first time
this song is how it feels to love someone so completely that you give yourself to them. whole heart, whole soul.
Staring down the barrel of the hot sun
Shining with the sheen of a shotgun
Carol has a little if we need some
Joe has a ride, if 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 risk
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 when I'm crying
Circle of pine and riddle
Circle 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 your to 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
I wanna sleep in your car while you're driving
Lay on your lap when I'm crying
Ordering the stars in Heaven
Hurling salt in the sea
Dragging a new-born mountain
Didn't you believe in me?
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 on your lap when I'm crying

I think it might be red oak instead of riddle?
Love the lyric guy in the comments 🙏
Wait whaaaaa I always thought it was “grocery store list now you get pissed, unchecked calls and messages” 😭😭
weren’t we the stars in heaven weren’t we the salt in the sea 😢 so good
"I was scared indigo, but I wanted to. *i was scared indigo but i wanted too* "
That verse gutted me.
what does that mean?
@@feby2873 i think it has something to do with indigo sparke, they were in a relationship
Her voice makes me feel something i can’t explain like it’s so good
I wish I will someday send this to someone I'll be in love with
except it's a love song after it's over. So maybe not?
are you in love yet?
It's so much more than just one thing. I love listening to it with my wife @@kimjunejohnson
My friend is one of the most beautiful girls I have ever seen. When we were both in our early teenage years (12 or 13ish) we were sat on a branch of a willow tree as the sun set. We were talking about so many things and in that moment I fell completely in love with her. I asked her to be my girlfriend shortly after and she said yes. We went back to hers and watched cloudy with a chance of meatballs on her couch. We both fell asleep and the next morning we awoke and realised we didn't want to be together, she genuinely didn't, but I was just doubtful. We called it off and are still friends now. She's grown so much since that night, she has a boyfriend now, she lost her virginity, she's an addict now, too. But I still see her as that beautiful girl absolutely glowing in the evening sun on that branch, I'll never tell her this, but I wish we hadn't have broken up. I don't know what would have happened to us if it had progressed from a funny memory to joke about together, but I wish I could've stayed to see. I love her with all my heart and this song reminds me so much of her. Especially 'I was scared indigo, but I wanted to'. I wanted and still want to be with her more than anything, but I was scared and still am. I'll forever be too scared to tell her how I feel. I have a boyfriend too and I'm not even sure she's bi. But it sucks that we could've loved eachother so much.
music is a beautiful thing man
im crying man i hope ur alright
This hits so fkn hard. My sympathy is with you 💘
Im crying
listening to this song is not enough, I need it deep inside of my soul
Adrianne’s new album is one of the most beautiful albums i’ve ever heard in my life. it feels like a folk classic, one of those albums we will look back on in decades time as a monumental achievement in songwriting.
this is proof of lenker’s serial songwriting ability
But not the first.
It's crazy that it took tiktok to make her more well known, but I'm so glad for her. She's so underrated; raw, pure emotion goes into her every song...
listening to this in loop for 2 days and, well, i dont ever wanna talk about anything but just keep enjoying this masterpiece
Really excellent song! It is like a garden bird flew over me to tell her feelings and disappeared......
Aw 😭 that’s such a special thought.
this is so beautiful. i cried first thing this morning listening to it over and over again. anyone know 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 your hands soothe
Listen to your heart beating

You held me the whole way through

I don’t wanna talk about anyone
I wanna sleep in your car while you’re driving
Lay on your lap when I’m crying
❤️
marieke liebe you’re doing the lord’s work, but in the first stanza I think the last line is “joe has a ride if we wanna come”
@@davidcline471 oops! Thanks for the correction! I literally just copied them from genius.com lol
Maybe check the description?
I’ve probably broke down to this song around 10 times
same like 45 minutes ago
I find myself revisiting this song whenever I think of hurting myself, it's filled with so much love that I feel cared for while listening to it. The fog lifts a little. Thank you, Adrianne, for sharing your heart and art with us. ❤
I literally typed the word ‘Anthing’ in my iTunes music search bar as I wanted to listen to anything. This track was first on the list. Glad I discovered it. I have listened to other Adrianne Lenker tracks since, though this one is my favourite. A sense of sincerity in the lyrics and delivery of the vocals. Clever syncopation between vocals and music too. Very good. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Lyrics
"Don't wanna fight but your mother insists" that hits deep.
anything could have you bawling and sobbing, anything could also have you appreciate life and it's beautiful features while listening to it on your way home on the train with the sun hitting your skin, anything could have you feel less lonely while you eat dinner alone. anything could have you think about your favorite person before sleeping. anything = masterpiece
This song is amazingly bittersweet. It feels like reflecting on a relationship that didn't work out even though you loved them deeply.
I watched a Brokeback Mountain edit to this song now i cant stop crying every time I hear it
YOURE ACTUALLY SO REAL FOR THAT ILY
Crying is my superpower. I'm here to help.
I've been with my partner for 4 years, and I'm getting choked up listening to this just thinking about how deeply I love him. Perfect song.
every time i listen to this song i just cry, i’ve never felt so comforted and loved by a song before
This song has made me cry every day since it came out it’s so fuckin beautiful
And even if we never see eachother again I am so glad we met at least once.
Me too
"dont wanna fight but your mother insists" is so real
my eyes started welling up immediately
Crying is my superpower. I'm here to help.😭
the little noise at 2:53 and the way the background music gets a little louder 😩😩 MASTERPIECE
I was just thinking last night whilst listening to Big Thief, a new record right now would be awesome. A new record from Adrianne is just as good!
This is what true love sounds like
This girl has brought something out in me that I didn’t know I had anymore. Nobody else has ever made me feel so in love. Her voice, her smile, her eyes, she is the perfect girl. Because of her, I finally know what it feels like to feel completely content and safe.
god i love him so much it hurts. this is how it feels
god i hope he’s okay. he’s my favourite person ever i hope he’s okay. i hope he can get through this. i’m so in love with him and i’m so scared for him. i’ve never loved anyone like this and it’s terrifying. i want to make him feel so loved but i can’t and it’s agony. i don’t know how to get it through to him that he’s perfect how he is
I swear I've never felt this much self love and appreciation from a single song before. It makes me want to give myself a hug
“I don’t wanna be the owner of your fantasy, I just wanna apart of your family”
*and then I get a flashback of me crying because my brother was treating me as if I was not apart of the family*
I've just found this song and I can't stop listening to it... it's such a intimate and stabbing song
perfect words to describe
i suppose love is a very vague concept with multiple definitions, yet it feels like it's embedded into every word and melody of this song. i keep thinking of him
Love the doubled vocals
ol right!!
Yea it really takes this song to another level
yeah this might be why i die
yeah this lowkey might finish me actually
This floored me.
Such ethereal bittersweet beauty
Lyrics are pure poetry.
~ Tears flow. As our love is deep, we will only grow.
Much love, healing and peace to all. 💙
Blue
Artist that include their lyrics deserve to have a lovely day.
Beautiful, just sat with a person I’d always liked, never been treated so nicely so genuinely genuine. Thank you, this song had me tear up. Feeling good,
i listened to this song on christmas eve with my mother and sis and sorta living the song was just as cool as you could imagine . it was like 7 pm and we were in the car driving around looking at people in our neighborhoods decorations, we went home and made hot cocoa after
this reminds me of perks of being a wallflower
This song is so hauntingly serene. Looking forward to the new album!
Her voice sounds so calm yet so emotional I don't think I could listen to this song and not cry she hardly stops singing The words just keep coming
'christmas eve with your mother and sis, don't wanna fight but your mother insists'
wow. hits too deep
Tried playing this on guitar after listening to the album last week. I couldn't finish the first time through cause I was crying reading the lyrics
hits me harder each time i listen. so so beautiful, Adrianne is a blessing!
this song really sounds like the feeling of loss to me but its nice that someone else knows the feeling just to know you aren't alone and that its universal
This song just made me start sobbing my eyes out and idk why help
i know this is probably a love song, but i can't help but think about my siblings
Jesus Christ
YES!!!!
-everyone after hearing this song for the first time
i love how we are share different but same feelings in this song
"anything" debuted at #6 on the New Alternative 40 Chart this week!
This song is so beautiful. I was actually shook when I heard it. It’s so raw and refreshing compared to what I listen to currently. 🥺💕 my heart.
as someone who fell in love with my best friend i swear on my life i have had these exact thoughts and i thank you for using your amazing artistic ability to capture these exact thoughts for me and many others alike, you even did it better than i could ever do with your beautiful lyrical composition. Thank you.
I'm aroace, and used to listen to this song when I thought I was in love with one of my best friends. It really hurt when I realized that they are a horrible person. I still think of them from time to time.
Great performance on The Late Show. This is absolutely amazing. Beautiful voice and lyrics.
I am officially blown away by the raw beauty this song possesses. Bravo, Adrianne.
I WAS SCARED INDIGO BUT I WANTED TO
protect adrianne at any and all costs. tears are a-wellin'
I love this song sm. It’s make me think about all the words I couldn’t say, the gut feeling I get with every lyric. One of my favorite artists so glad I found them🫶
This song is so beautiful that it never fails to put tears in my eyes.
i know this is about a relationship, but this remindes me of my little cousin when i was about 6, he was newborn, and he was everything to me. "i just wanna be a part of your family" remindes me of when i wanted to be included in my dad's part of the family and i didn't feel like part of it. this song is a masterpiece, i absolutely love it, makes me sob every time and it's my most listened song in spotify
this is for sure my favorite song of all time. it’s really deep if you get it and i relate to it on a soul level
“Shrill” brought me here because I was SO moved by this song at the end of the episode. But I am grateful to have discovered her now.
me too!!!
this whole song encapsulates the feeling of relaxing indoors while listening to raindrops hitting the roof and the windowpane
This music is everything..
this is the most beautiful song i've ever listen. it gives me peace and makes me happy :(
werent we the stars in heaven. WEARENT WE THE SALT IN THE SEA.
Expect nothing short of genius from Adrianne. This is so lovely.
always such a unique and personal vibe
I feel like a child lost in a park, not remembering which road led to home. My first love brought the child out of me, a pathway to home I used to follow to find them in another world that the two of us would reside in and claim as our own. They haunt me like a song, hearing them in other melodies. I hope they're still laughing with such ease as they did when I was in their company. I have forgotten how their laughter sounds like.
When I was walking home the other day, I was waiting at the traffic light, and just pictured them on the other side of the road, I could envision myself running toward them with glee as I sung their name feeling my soul rejuvenate itself as our proximity closed in.
I hope to feel alive again, I hope my soul slowly returns its way home. And even as I move on with life, I will carry a piece of them forever, for they opened my heart to the world.
How dare you make me cry
I know this is a song about love and relationships, but this reminds me of my family relationships. I would give anything to have a good relationship with the rest of my family. 💗
I always think of my gf with this song, and it just makes me cry, because I can feel his voice as if it were just a voice that is deep inside me, remembering how I cried on her chest because she was going back to her city and all I could do was just wait to see her again and love her in a not so fast pace, this song just represents how I feel and I cannot stop crying with it remembering her and how I want her so bad to be with me 'cause it's the only woman who loves me so much and that I love the same way
The chorus, really, its just, how I did really wanted her to stay a lot more the last day she was with me, and I think of how much I just want to be deaf from the world when I'm with her and never be blind because I want to see her eyes until I can't open mine again
Anytime I listen to this song I don’t think of a lover. I think of a best friend. She was my everything. We haven’t talked in years, im scared to reach out and her not wanting to talk, but I think about her everyday. She was my best friend on earth and wouldn’t change her for anyone or anything. Wouldn’t change her for all the money in the world. She was very special to me. We grew up together. It’s sad looking back at our good memories. She had to move when we were 12 or 13. She was forced to move away, and i couldn’t see her a lot but we would talk on the phone. I only seen her on my birthday after not seeing her for almost a year or 2. I miss her. I miss us being together all the time. Erika you’re always gonna be in my heart. I always think about you, and I never hated you, I wish we would’ve talked more. I’m sorry we drifted, you’re still my best friend, and if anyone asks I’ll always say you’re my best friend, even tho we haven’t talked in 3 years. I hope you see this and comment on this. I love you. I’ll always love you forever. My forever best friend soulmate. I dream about you a lot, I see us running around at amusement parks with our moms being with us and our family, but us holding hands and laughing like old times. I dream about you almost every night. It’s a new dream every night and they feel so real I feel like i actually talked to you. I tell my mom my dreams and she doesn’t think i actually talk to you but I feel like I did. I just miss you so much. The last dream I had we were jumping in a jumpy house and laughing and i only wanted to be with you nobody else. If I had only 5 minutes in the world to talk to someone it would be you. You knew everything about me, and even now it would feel like we never wasted any time if we decided to talk. I do see you sometimes on the internet, you’ve grown so much. I just wish I could tell you how beautiful and proud I am of you erika. You’ve grown into someone so perfect. I wouldn’t change a thing about you. It hurts to know we haven’t talked in so long, i wish we would’ve talked and grown together.. we would’ve had the best memories to talk about. We have so much time still but I want to say, id give my last breaths for you to be happy and have all the things you want in this world. I’d choose you over anyone. Anytime. Anyday. You knew all of me. All of my secrets. Made me feel never judged. You’re the only person who really knows me. I love you.
Ive left comments on other videos as well, i hope one day you find one of my UA-cam comments on songs and know it’s me. I know you would know. I miss you best friend.
"I don't wanna be the owner of you're fantasy, I just want to be apart of you're Family"
Its Hard......
adrianne is such a great lyricist oh my goodness…
