lyrics

For You by Joanna Sternberg

(humming)

With a smile like yours you could get away with murder
So I will not trust you no I will not trust you

With a face like yours you will know no suffering
I can't connect with you
I can't connect with you
I can't connect although I'll try
I'll try each time I won't know why
You'll swat me away like a fly
I can't connect with you

(humming)

With a voice like yours you could put the birds to shame
But who are you to blame?
No you can't be to blame

With two eyes like yours you could melt the rising sun
So I won't talk to you
No I won't talk to you
I will not talk I'll stare and gawk
That is all that I can do
(humming)

You will always have anyone that you could want
And you won't be alone
You'll never be alone
You'll never be at all like me
You'll never be alone

You will always have anything that you could want
But what will that get you?
Now what will that get you?
It will get nothing I bet
That's what it will get you.

I love how spacious yet intimate the mixing and lyrics are. Everything comes together so well. I especially love when more elements start to be brought as the album reaches it's climax. pacificbird

My friend Lawson introduced me to this last October, and I didn’t appreciate it so much at the time, but it’s become one of my favorite albums of all time. It’s gotten me through a breakup, is excellent for crying or thinking or driving or really anything. As an aspiring musician, i want my music to impact others in the way Microphones in 2020 has impacted me. My thanks go out to Phil Elverum for writing this and Lawson [redacted] for introducing me to it. daviecrockpot
