I N H I S I M A G E : WHEN I SEE PAIN ON MY MOTHER'S FACE / EVERY CREASE CARVED IN BY HIS MALAISE / WELL, I CAN'T HELP BUT STUTTER AND LOSE MY PLACE / NO, I DON'T WANNA LOOK LIKE HIM TODAY / WHEN I AM TOLD WHAT A MAN SHOULD SAY / AND I HEAR ABOUT HOW HE WAS SO GREAT / WELL, I THINK THAT I'D RATHER I LOSE MY WAY / WHEN I'M TOLD THAT I HAVE TO GROW UP TO BE BRAVE / DON'T BE LIKE YOUR MOTHER, DON'T CRY OR COMPLAIN / AND ALWAYS BE SURE TO BE PROUD OF YOUR NAME / WHY SHOULD I'VE BEEN MADE IN HIS IMAGE? WHY SHOULD I'VE BEEN MADE SO TIMID? WHY MUST I THINK, EVERY TIME I BLINK, OF HOW I HAVE HIS EYES? WHEN I TRY TO BE GOOD, WHERE HE TURNED AWAY / WELL, IT'S HARD WHEN MY MOTHER, ALONE IN BED, LAYS / AND SHE LOOKS ON AT ME WITH THAT DISTANT GAZE

There's something about this song that captivates me every time it's played. From Libby's angelic vocals to the warm banjo throughout, this is the song that should get you hooked on her music. Jake
Julien Baker is an acquired taste - assuming of course you’ve acquired great taste in singer songwriters… beautiful, devastating, honest, insightful… I’ve not heard a single song of hers that hasn’t left me in absolute awe. crisbroadhurst
This is the first album I found that really spoke to me as a young fem.
From the simplicity, the bass drum, specifically in landfill is so steady and soothing. I love landfill because it perfectly portrays trauma bonds, sexual or romantic relationships rooted in power imbalance. Being led on, unrequited love, constantly being clueless if someone is a real friend, or a lover. Are they yours or are they ruthlessly rogue. Untameable. Love and hate are such similar feelings, and they often mingle. clementinehatepageichangedmymind
