lyrics

People can't wait to find perfection
They just want what they get right now
It's clearly a waste of time
I can't see what I'm doing wrong til I'm
Crying all alone on my kitchen floor
Come see me when I fly

But you've been waiting here so long
For me to muddle through this song
Take my time

We need a love to last forever
So we will never die, die, die

So scared to live but too young to go
A child of children who will never know
How lonely they designed my heart
Gotta be something to get me through
How 'bout a love that lives for truth
If only I could be so smart

But you've been waiting here so long
For me to muddle through my song
But I take my time

We need a love to last forever
So we will never die, die, die
I need a song that I'll remember
That love is just a lie, lie, lie

Well maybe it could outlast us
When your bones and your hearts turn to dust
Afraid of the darkness beyond your breath
But your love is stronger than your death

We need a love to last forever
So we will never die, die, die
I need a song that I'll remember
That love is just a lie, lie, lie

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
