Angel Olsen
I’ve been looking forward to Angel Olsen’s Half Way Home for a while now and I am delighted to report that it is completely wonderful and out now on Bathetic Records.
“Here you come along, I take a breath and remind myself that I too can be strong. Thought I was cool, turns out I’m a fool, clearly you’ve proved me wrong. I didn’t know what I was missing when I was alone and now I’m fruitlessly waiting for someone not thinking before they start rushing to my door, someone to run now walk, someone to sing not talk, oh no hesitation at all sometimes I need you to be the one to call. Well, I’m lost in my thoughts, they tumble ahead over and over again, yeah it’s true, just take a look at whats been done to me. I’ve wasted time to ponder, here I am now all Alice and wonder, partly I do this to myself but why can’t you see the gesture is small but know that it means the world to me. Forgive me for wanting, I’m only learning life, forgiving myself and now there’s no one returning. I want to be the one who knows the best way to love you. But now I’m foolishly waiting for someone not thinking before they start rushing to my door, someone to run not walk, someone to sing not take, no hesitation at all. Sometimes I need you to be the one to call. I need you to be the one.”
