Lyrics:
through your eyes i see
the smile you bring to me
to your joy i tether
not a lot, just forever
intertwined, sewn together
like the rock bears the weather
not a lot, just forever
my dog barks wildly
to protect my infancy
from my ex-believer
i try to calm the wolf
to remind her i am both
still, she tears at my sweater
not a lot, just forever
intertwined, sewn together
as the wren sheds her feather
not a lot, just forever
your dearest fantasy
is to grow a baby in me
i could be a good mother
and i want to be your wife
so i hold you to my knife
and i steal your letter
not a lot, just forever
intertwined sewn together
as the rock wears the weather
not a lot, just forever
so, i bash around the house
the poison stains my mouth
she comes, i let her and
we share a paradise (pair of dice)
i roll them once or twice
can’t get much better
not a lot, just forever
intertwined, sewn together
as the rock bares the weather
not a lot, just forever
not a lot, just forever
intertwined, sewn together
as the wren bares her feathers
not a lot, just forever

what a gift it is to be alive listening to adrienne lenker's songs

[@Glepguy]

And what a curse that can be brought with remembrance of those who remind us of this song.

[@evabergstrom8822]

precisely.

[@dannygilbert8306]

she makes one guitar sound like 3, honestly incredible

[@tequili]

It's crazy how she's able to write so many unique songs, each song lives in its own universe.

[@mqevee]

also crazy how all of her lyrics is enough to make people have a heavy feeling, imagine having words so powerful that you cant stop crying (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ)
