she's so brave to be so vulnerable, can't even imagine the heartbreak she went through to write something like this

I miss my mom and shes down stairs rn laughing at ig reels

When the song is sad but the meaning is even sadder 😭

It is 02:09 on Thursday the 28th of December 2023, and im listening to this song for the first time in my life, i hope someday in the distant future i find this again

has to be one of the best songwriters alive.

Couldn’t even smile to this! Started sobbing IMMEDIATELY! Clean up isle my face and pillow! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤😂😂😂

“Not a lot just forever” the great intricate story of love summed up.

“I could be a good mother” hits hard especially when you’re scared to grow up but at the same time can’t imagine living life without someone.

in another lifetime, i will find you. i won’t hurt you , i’ll do everything right. i will love you like i’m breathing and show you how much you deserve

i feel touchstarved. i dont know why. i feel selfish for wanting love. am i really that selfish? do i really deserve love? i mean, it wouldnt hurt to give someone some love, would it? i just want someone to intertwine my hands with theirs.

when I first heard this song, I cried for days every time I even thought about it. the way this song makes makes my soul hurt is unmatched and i feel like clawing into myself and cleaving out whatever is inside anytime I even think it. it has touched me so much that i have to push it down and away because if I think about it too long i cannot stop. this is the most emotion a song has ever evoked out of me and it’s incredible and you are so talented and its so beautiful but i can never listen to this again because i will spend the rest of my life in tears

I cried the first time I heard it. Absolute sublime.

Through your eyes I see A smile you bring to me To your joy, I tether Not a lot, just forever Intertwined, sewn together Like the rock bears the weather Not a lot, just forever My dog barks wildly To protect my infancy From my ex-believer And I try to calm the wolf To remind her I am both Still she tears at my sweater Not a lot, just forever Intertwined, sewn together As the wren sheds her feather Not a lot, just forever And your dearest fantasy Is to grow a baby in me I could be a good mother And I wanna be your wife So I hold you to my knife And I steal your letter Not a lot, just forever Intertwine some together As the rock bears the weather Not a lot, just forever So I bash around the house And the poison stains my mouth She comes, I let her And we share a paradise And I roll them once or twice Can't get much better Not a lot, just forever Intertwined, sewn together As the rock bears the weather Not a lot, just forever Not a lot, just forever Intertwined, sewn together As the wren bares her feathers Not a lot, just forever

I can’t begin to describe how sad this song makes me

I could be a good mother

I miss my mom She is a single mother and raised me for most my life, and I watched drugs and alcohol rip her apart. Yesterday night she said I was dead to her because she has some messed up ideas of who I am. I wish her the best but I know I can’t save her.

truly discovering adrianne lenker and big thief 6 years ago was so beneficial for my outlook on life

idk why but "she comes, i let her" at 2:47 hits me so hard

possibly the best songwriter of our generation. everything is so pure and vulnerable. each word just piles on top of one another

It is 11:12 AM on Friday March 1st 2024. I'm listening to this song for the very first time. It's beautiful. I'm a different person right now then I'll ever be. I turned 16 this year. I hope you have an amazing day.

The guitar part is so beautiful. The part at 0:14 that repeats throughout the song feels like genuine heartbreak coming into focus for a moment, like it's difficult to stay with for any longer.

lots of dog mentioning on this album, wonderful

this is quite possibly one of the most beautiful songs ever written

I wish i was a musician so i can just sing my heart out

I’m sixteen. My boyfriend and I are on a break, regarding our relationship, right now. I think of him every time I hear this song. He’s a sweetheart. We’re intertwined and sewn together.

I love a girl named Jade

for me lately, this song reminds me thats time flies, too fast infact, and it feels like im running out of it completely. I’ve been so wrapped up in teenage life, whether it be boys, social media, or how i view myself. I haven’t even taken a second to realized how much my siblings have grown, or how stressed my mom has been at work, or how my brother’s a marine now.. i wish they could all live forever, but the cold but beautiful truth is, nothing lasts forever. I want to start living my life knowing this, living by this. Do everything with love, tell the people you love how much they mean to you.. or not, the time’ll pass anyway

the love of my life dumped me a week ago, i used to think of her when i listened to this. now it feels bitter listening

I have never had the pleasure to meet Adrianne in person. I barely know a little bit about her, but to me it feels like nobody else could have written something so pure like this.

Saw this on an edit of Drake Bell and Amanda Bynes as kids together. I’ve been crying ever since. It was the moment “Quiet on Set” truly hit me.

I cry every time I hear this song.

i cry every time i listen to this, i wish one day i'll be a mother, and be a better version of my mom. this song is every thing to me, i listen to it when i'm sad, happy, at school, depresed in my room, before sleep, when i wake up, this song is my life. i love you adrianne Lenker.

This song reminds me of when I got on a decompression walk after a long hard day at sunset and look at the sunset and feel that I might just be ok. And realize even though things are tough now everything will be ok

I think of him when the sun is about to rise and the sky is that dark blue, when the world is slowly waking up but in this moment everyone is quiet, I’m dealing with a heartbreak I’ve never dealt with before, i feel numb and like I’m homesick and he was my home and i feel so out of place in the world, I miss my home, I miss him

i actually sobbed with literal snot and spit coming out of me to this song

its 4:58 AM and i just found this song, i love this song now.

I just keep listening to this over and over and over and crying so hard I don’t know what it is

I have cried many times to this song. The way she describes the love she has for the other person and how they both mutually feel that way makes me feel strangely sad. Really brings out an emotion in my that I didn’t know existed till now.

I’m convinced sometimes you don’t get to be peaceful. Like ever. And I wanna be. But it’s been years.

He was a part of my soul, 2 years and I can’t get over him I still feel like throwing up every time i talk to him, still tear up

1:21-1:30 that recurring melody is one of the most things i've ever heard

what a record.. it's a perfect fit for my top 10 acoustics ever

This song sounds like a warm hug from someone or something who understands me deeply in a way that I wouldn’t know how to describe with words or any kind of communication. I appreciate this piece of work with all of my heart.

This made me cry the first time I heard it. Favourite song on Songs.

this is my favorite song ever. it's gotten me through so much in the past year.

After a month playing games with my 2 friends, one of them just touched my heart with his laugh, ruined humor and way to empathize. Discord help us to talk often. I thought I would never find someone to love or to feel loved by someone after a break, longdistance relationship with someone very different from me, but I learned so much things thanks to her. I prefered to say to to my friend I felt love, and not just friendship between us... She felt the same. I think you just have to give yourself a chance and be grateful about your past and keep walking, love, smile, feel you're loved, make someone smile. Don't get stuck! ❤

Just can't really describe in words how good this is...

your songs will always bring me to tears

This is so beautiful 🥲

I've been listening to this for hours on end, it's so beautiful I hope she never stops singing and writing and all this it's so gorgeous and I feel blessed to listen to it

hearing her sing ‘not a lot, just forever’ makes me think about how one day i’ll have to live without my dogs and it makes me cry every time

This song is one of the sweetest things I've heard in so long omg

This is one of a kind, can never and will never be replaced.

This is the first time I'm listening to Arianne's music Tuesday the 2nd of May 2023

This song reminds me of him it hurts but it’s so beautiful

i love this song because it reminds me of my beautiful sweet boyfriend, i love them so much. i remember before i met them i felt so miserable and lost but after i met them i knew that they were the one for me. they make me so happy i love them so much, the love they show me is so gentle and caring and i feel as if our souls are intertwined with eachother. i truly feel loved when im with them. i hope me and them stay together forever. i love you aaron. ^_^

As much as I love how much more recognition Adrianne is getting now I cant help but feel a little sad. Their music was like my beautiful little secret🥺

Cried my heart out to this song but my eyelashes looked great!

my older sister is leaving for college in a few weeks and i’m not sure how to deal with it. i know ill only be three years behind her, but i feel like my whole childhood is just slipping away from me. she was the last remnant of steady normalcy in my life and i’m scared to let go of her.

I know this is probably not what this song means, but here is how I see it. "Not A lot Just Forever." Means something you have to deal with forever, it may not seem like a lot at the moment, or you may tell yourself this. But it's going to be forever. "Like the rock bears the weather." shows the rock has beared the weather, no matter if it is stormy, or sunny. It always gets through the weather. "When a dog barks wildly, to protect its infentsy" means to the dog is barking wildly, quickly getting defensive to protect its infentsy, something that will always be apart of them. Something that means alot to them. The dog may act on this without even realizing it. Again, I know this probably isnt what it means. But it brings me comfort to think of it this way.

This is next level writing abilities. I mean pure poetry, pure emotion, absolute heart break and vulnerability.

this song means the world to me

the video reminds me of what i'd see outside waking up extra early for school with this song being my alarm knowing the heartache was going to be even worse that day

Adriannes songs are so perfect in the fact that you can be crying your eyes out to it at one point, then dancing around your room to it, then staring into the distance, serenading yourself with it, feel at peace with it, feel empty with it, ANYTHING

"i fantasize about playing this song for you on a road-trip somewhere in the wilderness"

I miss myself. I miss how happy i was

im sobbing my heart out

This song is healing something that was broken a long time ago

i don't miss my brother, i miss *my brother.*

In love with someone who can never know. 💛

I keep thinking about my boyfriend every time I listen to this song. Yesterday, he told me that he thought about me in everything he saw, and it was so heartwarming to know, because I do that too. I see him in everything I see-the trees, the flowers, even my clothes. I love thinking about him, and I wish he loved thinking about me too. I love you, Jor.

I went on the internet and searched “boy genius is overrated” and a Reddit comment mentioned Adrianne Lenker. To whoever who did it, thank you, because this is timeless music right there.

i never cry to songs or media but this song hit me in my core and now theres a ball in my throat

Hits differently at 3:58am

I find it Hard to listen to this song. It is by no means a bad song at all, I actually find it quite nice. It’s the memories this song brings along. Every time I find my self vividly remembering the time I found the love I spent was for nothing. As I sat on that FaceTime call quietly, trying to find what to say to her without bursting out in tears again. As she sat going about her evening despite telling me that she felt nothing but a random guy after all the time we spent together. I cried. Hard. Every night for weeks after then, I found it even harder knowing there was nothing of either of us could have done. She felt no spark for me as I did for her, when my heart raced when I stared at her she didn’t feel the same racing rhythm and the stumbling of my words as I looked into her chocolate brown eyes. The comfort her hand gave me intertwined with mine. It was all my own dream. I knew after I hung up that call it would be the last time we ever spoke as familiar faces. And I tried everything to make sure that wasn’t the case. And here I am. I hope it’s for the better but im still heartbroken. Healing, but slowly. I miss my beautiful girl, and I miss how much of safe space she gave me. The moments I cried in her arms, the time I comforted her as another man did the very same thing she would soon do to me. I miss her so much and this song reminds me so much.

اليوم تذكرت هالاغنيه بالمدرسه و بكيت عشانها تذكرني بكل شي

Instant tears

first song im hearing of her and wow im in awe

I love this song so much...I listen to it all day, I even listen to it when I go to sleep.This song just has something that makes you feel so close to the lyrics, it just bewitches you.

"I could be a good mother" Idk as someone with parental issues and stuff this song makes me think about how I can change as a person and not have to be like them in any way if I don't want to, like my life is mine and I can do whatever I want with it. One day I wanna be a mom, and I wanna do better than my parents ever could. But only time will tell.

I remember listening to this song when it was blizzarding out and smoking cigarettes outside, but i was so drunk i didnt care because the alcohol kept me warm. Will never forget it

you’re immensely talented, thank you for sharing your gift

Adrianne Lenker is just something else

I'm sobbing

Mississippi Public Broadcasting brought me here. I LOVE it..

"This song is just about a heartbreak." No, it's the feeling that comes with the last day of school. It seems happy but it feels like giving everything you worked for up, Every single year.

what the hell this song makes me UPSET but in a good way

This song makes me feel something different... like a real story telling of the love through my eyes and my life. It brings out raw emotions, and the lyrics are beautifully put! Such a outstanding piece of art this song is :)❤

I've always wanted to be a mother. but due to a whole childhood of trauma and self-loathing, I fear I may never reach that day. I had a dream the other night that I was holding a baby boy. I woke up distraught that he wasnt there. Im only 18, but I never pictured a future for myself, Im scared I will never see my baby boy. maybe it was a sign to keep going my school counselor, when I told her assured me, I'd have a family, and I nearly started bawling. I dunno what the point of this ramble is, I wonder if anyone else feels the same

I think this has to be the best youtube recommendation I've received in 10 years on this site. Such a beautiful voice and instrumental. I'm going to have to force myself to not listen to this ten times a day.

theres a reason i headcanon adrianne as my ocs va

everytime I hear this song I feel like I’m about to relapse.

Thank you for recommending this song to me, Noelle.

This song pulls the truth out of my tears and heart. No song has made me feel this connected and reunited with who I once was. I feel every emotion I have come to know throughout this song. Truely beautiful, thank you.

“I would be good mother”🧍🏻‍♀️1:53

Very few songs manage to capture the feeling of heartbreak. This is a masterpiece.

I cry every single time when I hear this song. It does something to your soul.

yo te amo adrianne lenker, todo lo que escribes es perfecto para mi, me haces llorar la mayoría del tiempo pero a la vez me das una tranquilidad que pocas veces alcanzo por mi propia cuenta, me gustaría recorrer bosques y desiertos y lagos con una guitarra y la paz que tú tienes... admirador numero 1000 del otro lado del mundo

I think about him when I listen to this 🖤

I looked at my dog sleeping and started crying, he ain’t dead but I just love him
