    I think the complexity of their music is the thing I like most about them. It's so easy to do just simple, sweet sounding folk music but their songs are layered, intricate like connected bridges that aren't level.

    As a younger mother, this really goes to my heart. Trying to do the best for your children and feeling like a child. The way Adrienne describes the inner monologue of her mother makes me cry every time. What insight, what empathy, what beauty ❤️

    I already loved this song on the album but hearing it acoustic like this I love it even more. The lyrical storytelling in this blew me away the first time I heard it ; it's rare to find a song like this with such vivid and emotional , raw storytelling. You can feel all the emotion in it and its just so beautiful in every way. And hearing it acoustic . Wow she hits every note impeccably . She has such a great control and tone . Love love love

    you have a mythological beauty
    you have the eye of someone i have seen
    outside of ordinary situations
    even outside of dreams
    you lie in bed at night and watch the lines of headlights through your screen
    there is a child inside you who is trying
    to raise the child in me
    if you wanna leave
    you just have to say
    you're all caught up inside
    but you know the way
    you cut the flesh of your left thumb
    using your boyfriend's knife
    seventeen you took him home
    and you gave birth to your first life
    you gave andrew a family who
    you thought could love and take better care
    i have an older brother i don't know
    he could be anywhere
    if you wanna leave
    you just have to say
    you're all caught up inside
    but you know the way
    you're all caught up inside
    but you know the way
    rented a house in niswah, minnesota,
    shrapnel, and oil cans, rhubarb in the yard
    i built a ladder out of metal pieces
    father was working hard
    standing beneath the oak tree by the front door
    you were inside baking bread
    sister came out and put her arms around me
    blood gushing from my head
    you held me in the backseat with a dishrag
    soaking up blood with your eye
    I was just 5 and you were 27 praying don't let my baby die
    if you wanna leave
    you just have to say
    you're all caught up inside
    but you know the way
    you're all caught up inside
    but you know the way
    you're all caught up inside
    but you know the way
