lyrics:
watching tv tired, bleeding on the bed
the milk has just expired, all the leaves are dead
i'm not quiet, you’ve been quiet, just receiving what you said
reeling, feeding, feeling filled by everything you fed
i see you as you see yourself through all the books you read
overwhelmed with guilt and realizing the disease
you give me chills
i've had it with the drills
i am nothing, you are nothing, we are nothing with the pills
i am empty ‘til she fills
alive until she kills
in her vampire empire i’m the fish and she’s my gills
falling, yeah
falling, yeah
i see you there rejecting all your earthly power
protecting and dissecting until you’ve emptied every hour
we jump into the pond then we come under the shower
you lay upon my pillow and you open like a flower
i wanted to see you naked, i wanted to hear you scream
wanted to kiss your skin and your everything
i wanted to be your woman and i wanted to be your man
i wanted to be the one that you could understand
you give me chills
Iive had it with the drills
i am nothing, you are nothing, we are nothing with the pills
i am empty ‘til she fills
alive until she kills
in her vampire empire i’m the fish and she’s my gills
falling, yeah
falling, yeah
i walked into your dagger for the last time in a row
it’s like trying to start a fire with matches in the snow
you can’t seem to hold me here, can’t seem to let me go
so i can’t find surrender, can’t keep control
you turn me inside out and then you want the outside in
you spin me all around and then you ask me not to spin
you say you wanna be alone and you want children
you wanna be with me, you wanna be with him
you give me chills
i’ve had it with the drills
i am nothing, you are nothing, we are nothing with the pills
i am empty ‘til she fills
alive until she kills
in her vampire empire i’m the fish and she’s my gills
falling, yeah
falling, yeah - Hudba
I love how different this version feels from the big thief release. another 10/10 song, love you adrianne
the piano addition in this version is so awesome
this feels like the uneasy but necessary step in recovery I love it
I was really annoyed with how ' fans' treated this song, but separating from that this recording is so cool! It feels frantic and maniacal like you were singing a cute song but just started spilling over with anger and emotion, it feels like a rush it makes me so excited
What do you mean regarding fan treatment of the original? Genuine question, I'm just out of the loop!
@@joeboonmusic4004 well big theif did a version of the song live before it was released and that got insanely popular, they then released another version of the song on streaming and so many people got really angry because it wasn't the right ' version '. It was just really entitled imo
@@joanie442ty I see! That sucks... imagine being so self-centred that you expect a band's entire creative sway to be dictated by you! I love hearing alternate versions, it's like a peak into the creative process.
@@joeboonmusic4004 exactly its so fun! its especially silly when they can listen to the version that they like anyways its like what is the fuss
I’m the fish and she’s my gills
I just listened to the album on Spotify at midnight as soon as it was available. Incredible work.
I deeply love both (and any and all) versions of this song. Something that Adrianne excels at is performing her work authentically in any given moment or circumstance.
This song is really feels like a masterpiece
Never mind the fish and the gills, she's put back in "for the last time in a row"! Absolute joy.
Listening to her version for the first time, reading this only 10 seconds in made me smile
This version has that "It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)" energy
BOB DYLAN MENTIONED, Also I think the mic quality is similar and the style of delivery is quite similar, but I think it seems similar to some early to late sixties versions of mama you’ve been on my mind.
the inclusion "i'm the fish and she's my gills"!!!
Gave the people their wish
I just adore this song! Song along in my car while in traffic.🥰
I'm addicted to this version ✨ I can't stop listening
Kinda has a Hard Rain is Gonna Fall chanting motion and intervals. A brilliant ode to love, I love this song.
Well i dont know big thief and i heard this version first and it rules.
You should check out Big Thief. She is the lead singer/guitarist and song writer.
This version always reminds me of brokeback mountain
absolutely
didnt expect this crossover
I feel like dancing!!!
Hell yeah, rawthentic AF
i love this version so much more than the big thief one 10/10 song easily
can wait to see her in november‼️
actually in love with this
Wonderful💚💚💚
Incredible
this is amazing so underrated
LOVE THIS
yeah
❤
First comment!! Great!! Imma be crying for a few hours about this song. Love you!!
I love this version and the big thief version. This version sounds like the person just keeps coming back for more, "Last time in a row" and how they are struggling with that. But the Big Thief version is more like the person is just done with someone, "For the last time." It just feels like they understand what the fuck happened and they're angry about it. Its so good and im so sad that the official release got so much hate.
🔥
wow
this song is so hopeful yet raw with nostalgia. Adrianne lenker I love you
I love this acoustic version!
I love Big Thief but I actually prefer this version for some reason. Both are amazing though ❤
Good and the violin two

The new album is magical ✨ You give me chills...
