I did what anyone would do
When they don’t speak the language
I kept quiet and read their faces
I spoke in short stunted phrases
For a long time and I was frustrated
How long will it take me to learn
To build something stable and strong
Resistant to the burn
I didn’t think I was an addict
And I never heard codependent til I heard it in a joke
But once I finally really fucking had it
Swinging from the end of my rope
I found a way to come home
How long will it take me to learn
To build something stable and strong
Resistant to the burn
Something arises in my body
Makes me shake
It’s something I was shown
Something that has grown with me
And it’s gonna take some time to calm down
How long will it take me to earn it?
Something stable and strong
A sprawling, 25-song set from Pete Yorn complete with covers of Springsteen and The Smiths capture him at his unguarded best. Bandcamp New & Notable May 16, 2020
