This song is not included in the soundtrack for the film Never Rarely Sometimes Always, but it nevertheless plays over the film’s final sequence, as Autumn (Sidney Flanigan) returns to her Pennsylvania hometown from New York. Sharon van Etten also appears in the film as Autumn’s mother.
[Verse 1]
It hasn't rained for days
Staring at a mountain out of range
Hear a bird calling
Someone's here to reach inside my pain
Pain
[Verse 2]
The leaves are turning in my mind
They haven't fallen and I can't feel time
The wind is capturing me
Hair is falling, covering my eyes
Rise
The wind is turning into movement
And then falling out of time
Time
[Verse 3]
I am so tired, I fell right through
I looked into a darkness no one knew
I'm falling further into something that I cannot understand
[Outro]
But you understand
You understand
You understand
You understand
You understand
You understand
You understand
You understand
