Adrianne Lenker’s “anything” came as a surprise on September 2, 2020, just a little under a year since her last major release in 2019 with Big Thief on Two Hands. The song was released simulatenously with the album announcement as the first of eleven tracks on the album.
“anything” does not sound f...
[Verse 1]
Staring down the barrel of the hot sun
Shining with the sheen of a shotgun (Shotgun)
Carol has a little if we need some
Joa has a ride if we wanna come
Hanging your jeans with a clothespin
Skin still wet, still on my skin
Mango in your mouth, juice drippin'
Shoulder of your shirt sleeve slippin'
[Verse 2]
Christmas Eve with your mother and sis
Don't wanna fight but your mother insists
Dog's white teeth slice right through my fist
Drive to the ER and they put me on risk
Grocery store list, now you get pissed
Unchecked calls and messages
I don't wanna be the owner of your fantasy
I just wanna be a part of your family
[Chorus]
And I don't wanna talk about anything
I don't wanna talk about anything
I wanna kiss, kiss your eyes again
Wanna witness your eyes looking
I don't wanna talk about anyonе
I don't wanna talk about anyone
I wanna sleep in your car while you're driving
Lay in your lap whеn I'm crying
[Verse 3]
Circle of pine and red oak
Circle of moss and fire smoke
Fan on the ceiling like a wheel spoke
Push the clutch and I pull the choke
Wanna listen to the sound of you blinking
Wanna listen to your hands soothe
Listen to your heart beating
Listen to the way you move
[Chorus]
And I don't wanna talk about anything
I don't wanna talk about anything
I wanna kiss, kiss your eyes again
Wanna witness your eyes looking
I don't wanna talk about anyone
I don't wanna talk about anyone
I wanna sleep in your car while you're driving
Lay in your lap when I'm crying
[Verse 4]
Weren't we the stars in Heaven?
Weren't we the salt in the sea?
Dragon in the new warm mountain
Didn't you believe in me?
You held me the whole way through
But I couldn't say the words like you
I was scared, Indigo, but I wanted to
I was scared, Indigo, but I wanted to
[Chorus]
And I don't wanna talk about anything
I don't wanna talk about anything
I wanna kiss, kiss your eyes again
Wanna witness your eyes looking
I don't wanna talk about anyone
I don't wanna talk about anyone
I wanna sleep in your car while you're driving
Lay in your lap when I'm crying

It’s a montage of many different images that I had stored in my mind from being with this person. I guess there’s a thread of sweetness through it all, through things as intense as getting bit by a dog and having to go to the ER. It’s like everything gets strung together like when you’re falling in...
