lyrics

This city remembers the prairie
The whispering hush, the wind in the sage brush
That carries the ghosts of the bison
To wander the streets, and click down the concrete

Oh Michael, of the high seas
In the grasslands, standing knee deep
Tend your garden and fight the notion
That nothing grows here in the city

And the truckers remember the sailors
Keep one weathered eye, as they pitch down the turnpike
To carry their goods to the market
Where the colorful stalls made way for the strip mall
But believe it or not these streets used to fill up with people

Oh Michael, of the high seas
Deck of cards and sharp machete
Hanging laundry across the driveway
While all around you rose this city

The sower remembers the garden
Comes down time to time, to stand in the breadline

Oh Michael, of the high seas
In the grasslands, standing knee deep
Tend your garden and fight the notion
That nothing grows here in the city

Oh Michael of the high seas
In the morning, drinking whiskey
We’d go swimming to remember
That this whole city once was water

Sprained Ankle

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

Four super songs from Sarah; all beautifully structured, sung and produced. There's a real brooding intensity to the messages built into these tracks – feelings that aren't quickly forgotten. Michael Reilly
