lyrics

a happy night sitting on a blanket, legs crossed at the ankles
i'm watching the first Halloween projected on a hanging sheet
i can't place this certain kind of sadness, but i'm glad to let it happen
it's something more than bittersweet
i'm almost devastated to feel so at ease

maybe this is growing up and out of all that didn't suit me
maybe you're not getting what you wanted but we got what we need

life gets hard and harder still
but we turn towards the sun like propagations on a sill
and we will grow and grow some more
'til we can't fit in the lives that we were planted in before
and it's so wild

people change only if they want to, not until they have to
almost never near enough to even out the harm they've caused the ones they care about
maybe this is growing up and out of all that didn't suit me
maybe you're not getting what you wanted but we got what we need

life gets hard and harder still
but we turn towards the sun like propagations on a sill
and we will grow and grow some more
'til we can't fit in the lives that we were planted in before
and there you are, you're not with me
you've been writing up a storm about how awful i must be
and here i am, i'm not with you
sitting outside at a party we once talked about going to
it's so wild, it's so weird
growing up and out of everything i was a part of here
it's so wild

Rachel Hirsh’s I’ve Been Here This Whole Time is a study in observation.

The Chapel Hill- based singer-songwriter’s debut EP is 25 minutes of brutally honest examinations of the self and other people, all fed through the filter of driving, melodic alternative rock that calls to mind predecessors like Anna Waronker (that dog.) and Helium. ... more
