Lyrics:

I’m not the person that I thought I was
I couldn’t tell you where the ache came from
Maybe born in a storm beneath an angry sky
Now it’s raining in my head nearly all the time
Now it’s raining in my head and I don’t know why


All the love, all the kindness, all your best-laid plans
Couldn’t stop me from becoming the way that I am
You toiled on a bridge to cross the gap inside
But I couldn’t help you build it and I don’t know why
No I couldn’t let you build it, but god knows you tried

Was I born with a hole in my heart?
A fatal fault at the start
Tell me it’s inevitable that I’d end up with
Scars

I’m not the person that I thought I was
I’m trying to come to terms with what you’ve done
In the fumes of your anguish, oh my blistering pride
I’m still burning like a tire fire deep down inside
Oh I’m burning like a tire fire and I don’t know why

Was I born with a hole in my heart?
A fatal fault at the start
Tell me it’s inevitable that I’d
End up with scars from falling
Down, down
We were always meant to fall apart

Nothing could have been done
Is that right?
Nothing could have been done
Nothing could have been done
Is that right?

‘Cause I was born with a hole in my heart
Yeah, we were fucked from the start
Tell me it’s inevitable that I’d
End up with scars from falling
Down, down
We were always meant to f

    as an autistic person, this song resonates with me beyond words. i know that's not what it's originally written about, but to me it is. i was constantly asking myself "was i born with a hole in my heart?" and "maybe born in a storm beneath an angry sky, now it's raining in my head … and i don't know why," before i knew why i felt so alien. paired with the simple catharsis of "we were fucked from the start," and finally the knowledge of “all your best-laid plans couldn’t stop me from becoming the way that i am,” it feels like both a warm hug and a rage room. thank you for writing these :)
  • I CRIED. SOBBED. WAILED. The fact that this is a response to Never Love an Anchor has me in SHAMBLES. I have an animatic idea in my head now. Thank you for this absolutely scrumptious food Crane Wives 🙏🙏

    Dude there are times qhen I'm just in so much frustration and loneliness and your music always resonates. It makes me feel way calmer and better because it makes me feel like I'm not alone and let's me express all those feelings inside. You are all such amazing artists and I'm so glad you exist.
  • @batterbee
