About Julien Baker:
A Memphis, Tennessee-based singer/songwriter with a knack for finding the shaky ground between heart-wrenching and cathartic, Julien Baker's stark and soulful music invokes names like Bon Iver, Daughter, Birdy, and Natalie Prass. Baker honed her skills while playing in her high school band Forrister, with whom she continued to perform while attending college. After writing a batch of songs that didn't seem to fit the band's more rock-oriented vibe, Baker headed to Matthew E. White's Spacebomb Studios in Richmond, Virginia to begin recording what would eventually become her solo debut, 2015's critically acclaimed, 6131 Records-issued Sprained Ankle.

Lyrics:

All of my friends, a plastic bag
Walking around, jumping the train tracks
It's over the fence, veins are black
Sleep on the bench in the park on my birthday
Caught the blue lights
Cursed your name
When I find I'm still awake
And you give me everything good
I'll throw it away
I wish I could quit but I can't stand in shakes
Choking smoke, singing your praise
But I think there's a god and he hears even when
I rejoice, and complain
I never know what he's saying

But I think there's a god and he hears either way
And I rejoice, and complain
Lift my voice, I was made
And somebody's listening at night
With the ghost of my friends when I pray
Asking why did you let them leave
And then make me stay
Knows my name and all of my hideous mistakes
I rejoice, I rejoice,
I rejoice, I rejoice
