Sharon Van Etten - Mistakes

I walk down the road,
Let my body wake up by the way
You’ll move.
Skate round the room,
See my body ache, my body shake
Boom boom.

Even when I make a mistake
Even when I make a mistake, mistake, mistake
It’s much better than that.

I dance like Elaine
But my baby takes me to the floor
Says “more, more”...
Eyes close to stares.
My baby takes, my body shares.
Lights flare.

Even when I make a mistake
Even when I make a mistake, mistake, mistake
It’s much better than that.

When I make a mistake
Turns out it’s great, it’s great, it’s great.
I’m much better than that.
It’s much better than that.

Even when I make a mistake
Even when I make a mistake, mistake
Turns out it’s great
Even when you’re late, you’re late, you’re late
It’s much better than that.
It’s much better than that.
It’s much better than that.

Sharon Van Etten - Porta

Cross the lines, you don’t know who’s lookin’.
Up ahead, another who’s bookin’.

Want to hear myself, wanna be there
Wanna stay but I don’t want to leave it
Want to hold head up, don’t want to stay down.
I want to live my life,

But you won’t allow.
Stalker wanna be like “I don’t want to hear that.”

I want to be myself, want to be there.
You want to rip my style, and want to be there
You want to hear my love, want to be there.
You want to steal my life.

I want you to stop trying
To get in the door
That you step through.

I want to be myself.
Don't let him find us, don’t want that life.
Think straight. Get by.
Gotta think straight to get by.
Think straight. Get by.

Want to be myself, you wanna be my
Want to be myself, you wanna be my
Want to be myself, you wanna be my

I want to be myself.

(stay out of my life…)

Sharon Van Etten - Far Away

Been down on myself,
Said won’t go back.
Been there,
My mother might say you were right.

Doesn’t matter where she is
(not far)
I’ll be here for a little while,
Then not gone
(long.)
Don’t know what it is so far.
I’ll be here.
Not only when you feel long lost.

Sitting there,
Wet mess,
We held til the sun came up.
Are you aware last steps realize?

Doesn’t matter where she is
(not far)
I’ll be here for a little while,
Then not gone
(long.)
Don’t know what it is so far.
I’ll be here.
Not only when you feel long lost.

Long gone I’ll see you far away.
Long gone I’ll see you far away.
Long gone I’ll see you far away.
Long gone I’ll see you far away.
Long gone I’ll see you far away.
Long gone I’ll see you far away.
Long gone I’ll see you far away.
Long gone I’ll see you far away.

Long gone I’ll see you far away.
Long gone I’ll see you far away.

Sharon Van Etten - Anything

Up the whole night.
Undefined.
Can’t stop thinking ‘bout peace and war.
Up the whole night.
Right before
The sun takes everything.
It could’ve been anything.
I didn’t feel anything.

Up the whole night.
(Underline)
Chain smoking, like, no, it ain’t right.
Afternoon beer?
Understate.
It could’ve been anything.
It could’ve been anything.
I didn’t feel anything.

You love him by the stove light in your arms.
He is there because he can’t stand the sad eyes.

I couldn’t feel anything.
I couldn’t feel anything.
I couldn’t feel anything.
I couldn’t feel anything.
I couldn’t feel anything.
