Lyrics:
Blue lightning was an autograph
Signin’ up the sky
To the question I had to ask
She only answered “why”
Angelia took a photograph
The moment had to die
Years later like an epitaph
We read it and we cry
This mornin’ I went to have a bath
The water ran dryClear warnin’ has it come at last
The time to say goodbye
Can we make love, can we hold fast
I really wanna try
Two-eyed lie Is it fight or fly
I wanna be the shoelace that you tie
Until the end will you be my friend
I wanna be the wrinkle in your eye
Yeah I wanna be the vapor gets you high
Blue heron now you’re scarin’ me
You circle and dive
Blue angel yeah you’re in my dreams
Swearin’ every night
And a spider just beside her, larger than a hill
And it’s plain to see if she don’t comfort me
The rattlesnake will
Two-eyed lie Is it fight or fly
I wanna be the wrinkle in your eye
Until the end will you be my friend
I wanna be the shoelace that you tie
Yeah i wanna be the vapor gets you high
Two-eyed lie Is it fight or fly?
I wanna be the shoelace that you tie‘
til the end will you be my friend
I wanna be the mountain kiss the sky
Yeah I wanna be the vapor gets you high
Yeah I wanna feel so happy that I cry
Yeah I wanna be the shoelace that you tie
Yeah I wanna live forever til’ I die
Yeah I wanna live forever til’ I die
Yeah I - Hudba
“I wanna be the shoelace that you tie” 😢
Right? I don't get why that line is so touching!
-Would you live forever never die?(Change)
-Yeah, I wanna live forever till I die.

I noticed this too! (Also name snap!)
Lead guitar tone ✨
"Blue lighting was an autograph signing up the sky." That's genius. ⚡
Such a perfect metaphor isn’t it
Gettin some Velvet Underground/RAM-era McCartney vibes from this track! So playful!
getting more Only Living Boy in New York Paul Simon vibes.. ha
And thus ends one of the best albums of the 2020s so far
I wanna be so happy that I cry ❤
Love you from Palestine
Listening to at least one Big Thief album every day 😛 from Masterpiece to this

Hm (one hundred percent, okay)
(What should we do now?)
who is the voice at the end?
I don't know but I love how the album ends with "what should we do now?"
Their drummer James I think
I am here because you guys cancelled two concretes in so-called "israel" due to their apartheid actions against the Palestinian people.
Thank you so much for taking a stand for us.
Much love.
