lyrics

What I know is that I’m good
At getting on then getting right back off the hook
Making plans for someone else
But every book I’ve ever held re-writes itself

I get worn out on my favorite cycle
Where I do something dumb and try to survive it

When I try to say the things I can’t
It comes out like an avalanche
How else do I prove that I adore you
Something about my savage heart
That wants to tear your world apart
And stitch it all right back together for you

What you do just for me
Is rake yourself across the coals that I can’t see
You never ask for me to prove
You just know I do the very same for you

I get spit out facing problems sideways
And I dig my fingers into the good things

When I try to say the things I can’t
It comes out like an avalanche
How else do I prove that I adore you
Something about my savage heart
That wants to tear your world apart
And stitch it all right back together for you

For you
Got plans for you

Used to worry I was a goner
Wanted just what I wanted
Scraping down at the bottom
Thought I’d never dig out

When I try to say the things I can’t
It comes out like an avalanche
How else do I prove that I adore you
Something about my savage heart
That wants to tear your world apart
And stitch it all right back together for you

For you
Got plans for you

Jenny Owen Youngs Maine

Avalanche, Youngs’ exceptional debut for Yep Roc records, offers up an achingly beautiful exploration of loss, resilience, and growth from an artist who’s experienced more than her fair share of each in recent years. The songs are deceptively serene, layering Youngs’ infectious pop sensibilities atop lush, dreamy arrangements that often belie the swift emotional currents lurking underneath. ... more
