Lyrics
you come alive in the heat, you ain’t crossing state lines
stood up like a crepe myrtle, can’t be killed or denied
throw a brick through the window, leave your mess at my door
lord knows sooner or later it’d wash up to shore
lord knows sooner or later it’d wash up to shore
you’re laughing & smiling, drove my jeep through the mud
your teeth and your tongue bright red from tigers blood
we were young for so long, seersuckers of time
drank someone else’s juice & left only the rind
drank someone else’s juice & left only the rind
i held it like a penny i found
it might bring me something it might weigh me down
you got every excuse but it’s an eerie sound
when that siren blows, rings out all over town
named after a city y’aint never seen
spellbinding copperheads banging a tambourine
it’s the kiss of death, but it’s the only way out
galloped up to the mirror, looked her right in the mouth
galloped up to the mirror, looked her right in the mouth
i’d’a skated the surface, i’d’a left you alone
by now truer words spoken like blood from a stone
& it fills me with dread but i’ve learnt to ignore
the smell of dust that creeps up through the cracks in the floor
the smell of dust it creeps up through the cracks in the floor
i held it like a penny i found
it might bring me something, it might weigh me down
you got every excuse but it’s an eerie sound
when that siren blows, rings out all over town
when that siren blows, rings out all over town

SO glad to hear MJ again on this, 'Right back to it' was already one of my favourite tracks of 2024 so far, his and Katie's voices work so well together!

[@willywonka4690]

Amen

[@quintenl9904]

The choir at the end made me audibly gasp. This album is amazing.

[@lizaduncan3597]

The whole album is unbelievable, and then ends with this …. Wow.

[@phesify]

this album is a 'grower'. what is different about her songs to other pop is that I often don't 'get' them first listen. by the third time, starts to click into place... then suddenly I realise I've played it 10 times... most hits make sense first play then get very stale to the point of un-bearability

[@davidskogley3570]

My thoughts exactly.

[@willywonka4690]

This IS music. Not pop

[@johnnorton1948]

Keep MJ around for a spell; you two sound fantastic together.

[@a.n.7229]

This is my favourite song on the album. Nobody understands a complicated relationship like Katie.

[@coltonp7149]

“Spellbinding copperheads banging a tambourine.” is such a great fucking lyric

[@scottsteder4789]

I was just thinking this 🔥

[@deckobhoy]

I'm seriously addicted to this song after seeing it performed live.

[@gweedsUK]

Fucking hell what a tune this is.

[@frankblacks.45]

Such pain in that beautiful voice. I was born & raised on Uncle Dave Macon's land 100yrs to the day of Uncle Dave Macon hisself. Watched & listened to my grandad pick & sing our people's music, Bluegrass, on his old Gibson mandolin. I'm sorry for the sins I made while my people's land & music got defiled in what's called Music City. Now I'm back & wiser for it and Waxahatchee gives me music I feel I do not deserve and I praise God for her.

"We were young, for so long."

[@ImTheDudeMan471]

Quit making me get tears in my eyes. Damn it.. ❤

[@jasperjohns5956]

Great song and video- moving and revitalizing and genuine

[@remledsellers22851]

There are countless subtleties at work in this track. As someone else mentioned, it demands to be heard repeatedly yet remains elusive. Even the cadence is haunting. The melody evokes my youth and how much of it was squandered. I hail from a cozy place and when that siren blew, it rang out all over town.

[@watchmen-nehemiah4v20]

Making the wrong deals, seeing and not seeing, mournful lament and yet the glimmer of hope ( sigh ) What is the breath of life? What is the way out of the matrix of deceptions ? Who will deliver us from ourselves ?

[@robotsex111]

Absolutely incredible song. One of, if not the best on the album; which is saying something because the album is top to bottom incredible.

[@bhughes8301]

This song is fantastic for sure

[@takashi7617]

This is amazing. Thank you so much.

[@stevencowie7151]

I'd write more but I have something in my eye.

[@csparksnc1]

[@jerrybuckley2049]

Blow me away... knock my socks off... shiver me timbers... Waxahatchee rides again!

[@Michaelvan-x1r]

Played June 2, 2024 on "Sunday Jukebox", BeFM ~ Busan, South Korea

[@lamaquinasensible]

Genial

[@Manzano89]

Que lástima que no mucha reproducciones ,a sido la balada más hermosa que escuchado en este 2024 ..simplemente fascinante😢

[@Fredwilson45]

What a lovely ditty. That last minute or so really got me feeling some type o’ way.

[@luci_g]

:_) me encantó

[@bhughes8301]

Great song

[@okcomputer0101]

See you in Paso Robles on Friday!❤🫶🏾

[@comradehermit9320]

Attention!: Country has become the new punk or perhaps punks has become the new country. Do with these facts what you will but don't deprive yourself the opportunity to rebel in the comfort of your own holler.

[@RebelScum312]
