The lyrics are very profound. When I listen all I think of is how people tend to be fearful of the unfamiliar and uncomfortable especially amongst people that are different from them. The guilt we feel for not paying enough attention to the pain of others around us bc of the weight of our own. Being trapped in in a cycle of staying to ourselves and getting further from the love for humanity.

A hotdog with peas and carrots could be a sign.
well that's a song that's stuck in my head for the rest of my life
This song and video just makes me think of someone who deals with depression and anxiety. Things as simple as breathing and making eggs become difficult to do most days. After awhile just feeling like a shell of someone you used to be.

Yes definitely! Have a nice day!
Even though there are so, so many overlooked bands and artist now days, I am really glad wye oak has become as sucessful as they are, they truly deserve it.
The bass work on Wye Oak songs is the reason i live

I want to just put that chorus on a loop. Listened to the album so many times already!
This is brilliant and so are they
Wyeoak is my favorite band. Beautiful.
Exquisite music.
I saw them in Pittsburgh, and after the show I had a chance to speak with them. Jenn was crying, I was crying. Andy was chillin. Keep crying Jenn, your music is life.

I really liked this. It had a simplicity to it, but it felt right, even with it being a bit clunky in parts. Great song, and it is awesome to see Wye Oak becoming more mature in their music and writing.
I love this song!

When I am tired Unbidden, I go for a walk I have to walk Or else I do not recognize myself My foot uncovers What my heart wishes is a treasure Seemingly foreign But somehow still it is familiar It could be amber It could be animal or antler They do resemble They do remember one another [Chorus] It was not natural, all along Only human hate could give us something so unforgiving It was not natural, all along Only human hate could give us something so unforgiving Something so unforgiving As I expected With time it hasn't gotten easier I have to work now At things that used to be like breathing I try to focus Forgive myself for having so much I am too busy for it Or else I am not busy enough When I see clearly I know we share the same devotion But joy is hungry And you know I can't promise anything [Chorus] It was not natural, all along Only human hate could give us something so unforgiving It was not natural, all along Only human hate could give us something so unforgiving Something so unforgiving

逃花機 "It could be amber. It could be animal or Anger." Shes just not saying the word Antler. Despite every lyric sight on the internet.
Jesus this shit is amazing
I thought she said high after work for years and I will continue to think she said that

wa gu I agree. Was very disappointed, the album is great but the videos aren't holding the same weight or expanding the themes.

I have always felt that the listener creates the meaningful or touching story to go along with a song that means something to them.
they are the only thing that can kill an original : )
Big fan of civilian, but this one seems to be all over the place in both rhythm , and continuity. It just never seems to settle in

The live one they did with for Moog is in its own way just as good as the studio version.
I can relate to this video and song, my eggs were natural when they went in my frying pan, but they certainly didn't look natural when they came out

You're the best with the guitar, ¿why do not you play the guitar?
This video reminds me of the girl from yes man.
