    i always cry when I listen to this song. it speaks to me. how we all get older and then realize that our parents are actual people and had a history before us. Accepting the mistakes they made in your childhood and moving into the future with them. I’m 24 so it hits me hard right now because all I want to do is spend time with my mom and just get to know her while I still have her. Great song.

    Experiencing pain through her soul while being soothed by the very person that brought it to your attention. She has a gift. This should be the theme song for one of my favorite books. The Spiritual Advantages of a Painful Childhood. My obsession with her marriage of painful expression with persistent piercing rythyms is ridiculous.

    I heard this song and saw this music video on MTV the other day, and it's been on my mind ever since. I didn't catch the name of the song or the artist, the only word i remembered was "beauty". I literally searched for "indie music video walking through forest" and finally found it. I'm so at peace right now.

  • @iamaaronellington

    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 his come
    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
    so much more
    to live your life
    to walk the floor
    to say goodnight
    to leave your light on
    do you leave you light on?
    you're all caught up inside
    but you know the way
