    This song got me through grad school. I know that’s not such a big thing, but I lived in an underground apartment in northern Illinois and didn’t get a whole lot of sun. I’d sing it to myself while trying to find a parking spot on this massive campus before going in to study in this tepid, unwholesome environment. Today, a year after finishing, my wife and I planted our first vegetable garden in our backyard.

      That's my favourite part of the song. I feel like she really explored the expressive capabilities of her voice as opposed to every other part of the song.

    “I need to start a garden” reminds me of the line “If I had an orchard, I’d work ‘til I’m raw” from Fleet Foxes’ “Helplessness Blues.” The desire to create and grow and make something, to participate in something meaningful, to pull yourself out of your rut and stagnation.

      Parts of it reminds me of the band mothers and the oom sha la la part reminds of nothing’s gonna happen by tall dwarfs. There’s also some aspects that remind of something else possibly a pixies song, but I’m not entirely sure.

    The first time I heard this song, it was like something unlocked in my brain. I've always liked music and listening to it, but the lyrics and heart of this piece connected with me like nothing else. It's been a rock for these past two years, and I come back often, whenever I feel like I need to start a garden :')

    The milk is sour
    I've barely been to college
    And I've been doubtful
    Of all that I have dreamed of
    The brink of my existence essentially is a comedy
    The gap in my teeth and all that I can cling to
    The milk is sour
    Sha la la
    Oom oom sha la la
    Oom sha la la
    Oom oom sha la la
    The milk is sour
    With olives on my thumbs
    And all that I have stuck to and all that I have clung to
    I've felt like a dog
    This world that I have trusted
    Has been over and busted and rusted by an arbitrary sonogram
    Sha la la
    Oom oom sha la la
    Oom sha la la
    Oom oom sha la la
    Oom sha la la
    Oom oom sha la la
    Oom sha la la
    Oom oom sha la la
    The milk is sour
    With olives on my thumbs
    And I've been out full
    Of all that I have dreamed of
    The brink of my existence essentially is a comedy
    The gap in my teeth and all that I can cling to
    The milk is sour
    Sha la la
    Oom oom sha la la
    Oom sha la la
    Oom oom sha la la
    Oom sha la la
    Oom oom sha la la
    Oom sha la la
    Oom oom sha la la
    If you don't go outside
    Well nothing's gonna happen
    She'll never write her number on a crumpled up napkin
    She'll never be your ego
    She'll never be a bandit
    She'll never get to eat you like your heart's a pomegranate
    I'm throwing out the milk
    The olives got old
    I'm tired of my mind getting heavy with mold
    I need to start a garden
    I need to start a garden
    I need to start a garden
    I need to start a garden!
    Gonna start a garden in my backyard
    I'm gonna start a garden in my backyard
    'Cause making this song up is just as hard

    1:38 "If you don't go outside..."
    My favorite part of this song, if I had to pick... I fell in love at 15 with someone a decade older than me and *suprise* it turned out very bad for me. I spent 7 years with this person and realized the hard way that sacrificial love isn't love. Been working really hard to toss out my own "sour milk" of trauma responses and learn to approach the world with an analytical eye and good faith. This phrase in particular give me hope and courage. Love didn't hurt, that relationship did, and I deserve loving relationships (with myself and with friends too!). My heart swells every time I hear this song ✨️💚🌱

    Ive only just recently started listening to this song, I stumbled upon it at work. It was raining a good bit so I stayed in the bay where it was warm, this popped up on my recomended so I gave it a listen. When she screams "I need to start a garden" it litterally gave me chills. Goosebumbs and a warm face. I loved it so much I played it on repeat for the rest of my shift.

    She is so stressed, too free to have so much responsibility. There's olives on her fingertips. She's clung to so much that only promises happiness. Throw out the sour milk. Start a garden, watch that shit grow. If you don't go outside, well nothing's gonna happen

    It got me through treatment multiple times. Nothing better than listening to her while smoking a cigarette. Not even being trusted to use a lighter. Having someone watch you shit, eat, sleep. Something surprisingly poetic about it. Listened to her every single day for months while I was away. She made it all so much easier. Thank you so much.

    Fan from GA! By the way lol, some of us have decent taste 🥰 this song got me through a good bit, going back to school to complete my bachelors and so many other complexities
    To throw myself into something
    To go beyond what’s comfortable and build something for myself, to create something that can grow, to allow myself to not inhibit my intellect beyond what I might not deem to be perfect … and allow myself that growth
    Much love!

      Rex
      My home
      is full of garden gnomes.
      Lying along the floor
      like viscid stones.
      One for every mistake
      I ever made.
      And now
      they are building an army
      for a justified crusade.
      I'm the trophy
      of the safari,
      said the rabid
      gnome knight.
      I'm going to suffocate
      in my sleep
      tonight.

      I sail away in seas of doom
      My shield is strong and I got no fear
      I'm gonna face the enemy soon
      The night is cold and the air is clear
      The enemy could be anywhere (beware)
      The serpent's eyes enlarge with fear
      It's all about for those who dare
      Thunder! Lighting! Fighting! Heavy Metal in the night!
      Garden Gnomes! Are dying! By axes! Bleeding in the burning light!
      Face to face with an army from hell
      A sudden flash the battle is on
      So swing the axe and cast the spell
      Kill or be killed - dead and gone
      The taste of Metal is the taste of blood
      The enemies have got their reward
      We buried them in seas of mud
      They've felt the rage of my sword
