"TNT" lyrics
"TNT"
If it's true that time moves in one direction
Then why is my head still in your lane?
Through days that have paced steady, strong, circled by
So where were you at this moment last year?
When the days started losing their light
Was the mark of my birth in the line of your sight?
Spring and summer, I learned from you
I did what I did, what I had to do
But how many seasons 'til time ain't true?
I believe in a place where time moves backwards
And the truth seems so clear and easy to tailor
I've been trying to leave you there, but I have to get outside of myself
Did I know what I saw in that mountain sunrise?
Did I capture the light and the lay of the land?
I've been writing the same song over and over and over again
Spring and summer, I learned from you
I did what I did, what I had to do
But how many seasons 'til time ain't true?
Spring and summer, I learned from you
I did what I did, what I had to do
But how many seasons 'til time ain't true?

music video.
"This song is about the changing of the seasons, and using the passing of time as a means of reflecting on your own growth. It's about joyfully acknowledging all of the ways in which you've grown while trying to accept the parts of yourself that are still stuck in patterns of repetition. And it's about learning to see outside of the more superficial parts of your personality in order to attempt to understand the other, and reach some kind of equilibrium in spite of how different we all can be." - Jenn Wasner.

His lightening threats spun silver tongues
The red bells beckon you to ride
A handprint on the driver's side
It looks a lot like engine oil and tastes like being...
St. Vincent - "Strange Mercy" Oh, little one, I know you've been tired for a long, long time

Sea Wolf - "Old Friend" Old friend come back home
Even though you always were alone
You had to push against the fates
Just to make it
Make it through the gate

Grizzly Bear - "Two Weeks" Save up all the days
A routine malaise
Just like yesterday
I told you I would stay
Would you always?
Maybe sometimes?
Make it easy?
Take your time
Think of all the ways
Momentary phase
Just like...
Phantogram - "Bill Murray" Am I lonely?
Oh it feels like when the day breaks
Am I wanted inside?
Say goodbye, do you feel liked?
Wave goodbye, and your heart's not in line
Burning star
Burning star
Am I lonely?
'Cause it...
