Wye Oak - Lifer Lyrics

this is music at it most elegant and grown up

love love love come to Portugal please

Great song, but the video just reminded me of the Dune movie, likely shot at the same locales.

"i have to love the life I make/to make up for the space I take" This.

Love the guitar work in this song. Reminds me of Red House Painters.

This song is very beautiful and very relate-able. One of my favourites on the new album.

My dog passed away just before they released this song, and some of these lyrics just really struck an emotional chord with me (particularly 'I want to see you rise again, to see life in your eyes again, to feel your pulse is beating strong, to prove all of us wrong'). Their music has gotten me through a lot of bad times, and I cannot wait to see them in concert again in July.

great video

This song is great, i just wish the bit between 2:00 and 2:45 continued until the end of the song. I want the energy to keep rising!

damn what a fantastic song!

"I want to see you rise again / to see life in your eyes again" is... a way to heal.

the end is kind the mean cruel. love you mine

you don't believe in chance do you?

saw you on C BS love the combo...

muy linda la cancion :3

oh my god this is gorgeous
I loved Shriek, and I'm really loving this. prog atmospheric art pop

Sometimes the darkness brings closure to the chapters worth burning. This is so great and speaks to liberation. My wings have been tied up against my will for far to long.. seeking the approval and love that doesn't exist from a father that never believed in his little girl. Although you sold my innocence My wings are freed up now . #metoo. I forgive you.

I just heard a live version of this song on the TV on some random show this morning. It brought me back to the 1980's reminding of the Paisley Underground sounds of California of the early mid & mid 1980's (i.e., The Bangles, The Three O'Clock, The Rain Parade, Opal, etc) or the various jangly guitar rock during that same time around the country (ie., REM, Let's Active, Salem 66, Pylon, etc)....

So so soothing. The album's lyrics stand out as their best. This and "The instrumental" our some of the best songs I've heard all year.

i cry when hear this song, i love so much

great song

Hi i'm a 19 israeli singer songwriter and it will mean alot to me if you will see my first video clip of my song "somedays" i just published. 🤘❤
It can be found on my youtube channel

I enjoyed Jenn's solo work with Flock of dimes, this reminds me of that album.

one of my favourite bands ever

2:00 logré sentir cada acorde, que hermoso <3

really enjoyed Tween.. they are never short on material or talent.

The synchronicity of these lyrics with my life right now caused a bit of catharsis. The mark of good lyricism in my book is in crafting verses that are succinct, cohesive, and just vague enough to make any of us feel like we could be living them. Illustrated so beautifully here.

This may have already eclipsed all their previous work to become my new favorite, and that's saying a heck of a lot.

Touching lyrics...loved the song! Thank you for sharing. So excited for your new album, too. 🎶💞 (pjw, this song has meaning for you.)

These two are never disappointing.

I was really waiting for this <3

Can’t wait for the album! This song and “Not Natural” are excellent.

The reviews the new album is receiving are fantastic...An 84% rating on Metacritic ... This will be their best album so far I believe...They just drip talent.

Beautiful song, im hyped for listening the whole album, it will be great!
