When I rise I’m awakened by sun / and it calls me home / when I’m home I weep for lost / when I’m home I regret the cost / of the grudge I hold / a family lost over silver and gold / a family conned me for everything I own / but that was long ago / and mom said stop the Lord will judge he’ll bring wrath to those who’ve done us wrong, and ignite their souls / as the seeds they fall to ground we lose to grief / regret we must sound the sirens through the house / ‘cause if we don’t we won’t ever learn that we must progress through our hurt / so sound the siren now / and I must rise and awaken the sun I will rise and scream for the sun and bring light home / ‘cause we’re all stuck waiting for a sunrise / we’re all stuck waiting or the light to make things right / I will rise and awaken the sun / I will rise and scream for the sun and bring light home

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
