I remember when the days were long, And the nights when the living room was on the lawn. Constant quarreling, the childish fits, and our clothes in a pile on the ottoman. All the slander and double-speak Were only foolish attempts to show you did not mean Anything but the blatant proof was your lips touching mine in the photobooth. And as the summer's ending, The cool air will put your hard heart away. You were so condescending And this is all that's left Scraping paper to document. I've packed a change of clothes and it's time to move on. Cup your mouth to compress the sound, Skinny dipping with the kids from a nearby town. And everything that I said was true, As the flashes blinded us in the photobooth. Well, I lost track, and then those words were said. You took the wheel and you steered us into my bed. Soon we woke and I walked you home, And it was pretty clear that it was hardly love. And as the summer's ending, The cool air will rush your hard heart away. You were so condescending. And this is all that's left Scraping paper to document. I've packed a change of clothes and it's time to move on. And as the summer's ending, The cool air will rush your hard heart away. You were so condescending, As the alcohol drained the days. And as the summer's ending, The cool air will rush your hard heart away. You were so condescending. And this is all that's left The empty bottles, spent cigarettes. So pack a change of clothes, 'cause it's time to move on.

I've packed a bag but I can't move on. She has my heart, I don't want to live without it.

She's a tiny, tiny person, so soft-spoken, with a strong voice and strong feelings. Great guitarist as well.

Listening in 2021. Through the tears, thank you.

This version was how I got into JB like years ago, thanks for the reupload. Anybody notice though she doesn’t need the lyrics, shows how big of a fan of Ben she is. Check out her cover of “Nothing Better” if you haven’t yet

It's amazing how many artists I discovered all these years from an AV Undercover performance. This was the first time I ever heard of Julien Baker and I was hooked immediately.

First song I heard from her too.

A couple of years ago I listened to this cover after my dad shared it with me. He knows I love Ben’s music deep in my soul, but this cover revived me in a way I could’ve never expected.

One of the best solo performances of a cover.

She needs to do a covers album with this and "Accident Prone" by Jawbreaker

This song makes me want to make a breakup movie just so I could play this song over stabbing images of a painful human breakup scene.

This woman’s voice will forever bring tears to my eyes. Dammit, Julien. You really know how to pull at the heart strings. One love girl, thank you.

It's now been years that I've come back to this performance in moments of helplessness, delirium, uncertainty, in the troughs of this human experience. Somehow, each time, by the end of these 5 minutes, I am left with a feeling that itself cannot be described into words. Only that I know beyond any doubt, in the same way we know things in our dreams without being told or described, that the warmth that emanated from that room, the unconscious guiding of her fingertips and effortless fluttering of the folds of her throat, is a thing that is not subjected to space and time. It radiates beyond the language of years and miles. Because as I watch this video, I was there. she is here. so are you. And whatever it is, it's here with us.

I love this because I can hear Ben Gibbard's unique voice in my head as she sings every line, but it also tonally fits so well with Sprained Ankle that it feels equally from Julien Baker as well.

She's just wonderful

i like the original but DAMN what Julien did to this song... just.. it's heavenly and also fits perfectly with her voice

Man, I forgot about this one. What a cover!

Being young was awesome, but i did not enjoy it as much as i would like. This song, especially this version, reminds me that.

Great cover
