She Knows
03:50

She wakes up, fills her coffee cup
She looks outside to see the sun rise
And she knows where to go
She knows what to follow
And every breath that she takes
Is gonna get her there tomorrow
She’s on her way
She knows what to say, she’ll get it right
She’s taking her time, everything’s fine
She will be alright
She’s alright
One more road and another light
Fifteen hundred miles and she’ll be there tonight
She knew she wasn’t happy
Right before she said she needed space
Only the worst would happen
If she never tried to make a change
She’s on her way
She knows what to say, she’ll get it right
She’s taking her time, everything’s fine
She will be alright
She’s alright
Tthe day is gone the weight is off her shoulders
No one holds her down anymore
All that’s left is right ahead
It’s better off this way
And she knows where to go
She knows what to follow
And every breath that she takes
Is gonna get her there tomorrow

Money, money, cash, spend, buy me everything
Tings, things, things, diamond rings and ice cream
Pour some sugar sugar sugar sugar on me
Shake shake shake shake shake that money tree
I want it all right now
Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme
Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme
Gimme that stuff, that fluff, pink poodle in a Prada purse
I was here first, bitch. move it
Move it, move it, move it somewhere sunny somewhere tropical
Beach side ringside poolside power balls
I want it all right now
Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme
Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme
Diamond covered guitar, llama in the backyard
Star on the boulevard, top shelf mini bar
Nowhere’s ever too far, I’ve got a race car
Torre del Mar, I’ll send you a postcard

My Brain Is A Computer
04:28
|
|||
|
I spend too much time on my phone
So I force myself to practice ukulele
And I buy too much stuff on Amazon
So I force myself to sing a song that I love, so much
Who have I become?
I’m getting angry at someone
Who commented on some stupid thing I read
When did I decide to pull
Te wool over my eyes and feel
So comfortable playing dead?
My brain is a computer, and I think it’s been hacked.
My brain a computer, and I’d like to have it back.
After all that’s said and done, I fear I’m not the only one.
My brain is a computer, and I think it’s been hacked.
I eat too much junk, but it’s so fast and sweet and cheap
And I breathe too much smog, but I love this city
And I swear that she loves me.
What have I become? I’m disappearing in the sun
And overhearing music that I kind of hate
I’m consuming and I’m glib about the way I chose to live
but I’m not making choices, I’m making mistakes.
My brain is a computer, and I think it’s been hacked.
My brain a computer, and I’d like to have it back.
After all that’s said and done, I fear I’m not the only one.
My brain is a computer, and I think it’s been hacked.

Roses

It’s not all about roses, roses
It’s not all about love
It’s not all about good times, good times
It’s not all about us
When you’re not here
When you’re not here
I disappear
My friends ask me where I’ve been, I’ve been
I lie and say I’ve been around
But really I’ve been in my bed, my bed
Hiding underneath a cloud
When you’re not here
When you’re not here
I disappear
Ooh come back soon
Ooh come back soon
It’s not all about roses, roses
It’s not all about love
It’s not all about good times, good times
It’s not all about us
When you’re not here
When you’re not here
I disappear
It’s not all about happy, happy
It’s not all about sad
It’s a little bit numbing, numbing
It’s a little bit bad
When you’re not here
When you’re not here
I disappear

Name That Tune
03:36
|

I guess it’s another year
But this time I won’t cry a tear
‘Cause people come and oh they go
Talking fast and moving slow
And I can hear you singing in the back of the room
But I could never name that tune
I can hear your footsteps walking down my hall
But I don’t think it’s you at all
Figuring out just who I am
Heard it all and I wrote it down
And oh I started to believe
But nobody knows me more than me
And I can hear you singing in the back of the room
But I could never name that tune
And I can hear your footsteps walking down my hall
But I don’t think it’s you at all
And you know that I can’t let go
And I try I try to get by
You know that I can’t let go
And I try I try to get by
And I can hear you singing in the back of the room
But I could never name that tune
And I can hear your footsteps walking down my hall
Bt I don’t think it’s you at all

Getaway
03:29
|
|||
|
Here I go again on my own
Walking over the same line
And oh I can’t pretend that I know
More that I did before
And you say why would you make that getaway
Life would be easy if you stayed
But there’s something in the water that keeps us this way
And we’re drowning without knowing who to blame
Yeah we’re thirsty for an answer but it’s a lifetime away
And that’s why I will make my getaway
What if there’s a world after this
With peace love and kindness
And what if people cared
For the fish more than the plastic
And what if we were brave enough
To say what we really feel
And what if we were saving up for the future humans
Well there’s something in the water that keeps us this way
And we’re drowning without knowing it’s a game
Yeah we’re thirsty for an answer but it’s a lifetime away
And that’s why I will make my getaway

More

All I know is out the window
My hands are up in the air
And you say I remind you of the good times
But I can’t be a fool unaware
Cause I know he is waiting for me
Just like I did before
And we, we will never never be free
From feeling like we need more, feeling like we need more
So what am I supposed to do
Pack my bags, and run away with you
Well I can’t be a fool for you again
'Cause I know he is waiting for me
Just like I did before
And we, we will never never be free
From feeling like we need more, feeling like we need more
But I keep feeling like I need more feeling like I need more
I keep feeling…
And I know he is waiting for me just like I did before

I'm OK
02:29
|

|
I know you don’t even know me
Take the truth and tuck it away
This is your chance to come to me slowly
I will stay and I won’t be afraid
I will stay and I won’t be afraid
I’m OK. I’ll be just fine.
I’m OK. I’ll be just fine.
Where have you been and why are you hiding
I’ve got nothing to show you, but something to say
I have nothing to show you, but something to say.
I’m OK. I’ll be just fine.
I’m OK. I’ll be just fine.
There’s a path you choose to follow
No regrets tomorrow
But I’m sure you think about it every day
And it gets cold inside this room
You’ve left me oh so hollow
Nothing ever stays the same
But I’m OK. I’ll be just fine.

Stop. Be Happy.
03:14

Woke up this morning and nothing’s the same
But I could hear you snoring a million miles away
And I write you letters in my head most overnight
And I dream that we’re back home and you’re holding me tight
Dear you I miss your kiss your loveliness
Dear you I miss your touch I’d give anything to have you near
I spent the day picking flowers in a field
Counting the clouds then I watched them disappear
And I cried with all my might like I have every day
And I tried to think of all the things that you would say
Like stop. Be happy. We had a good run didn’t we baby
Stop. Be happy. We’ll meet again some sunny day
Dear you I miss your touch I’d give anything for a hug

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche.

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.
