Until I Am Whole Jordan Lake Sessions Volume 1 by The Mountain Goats Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sunset on Snohomish
Burn the tree line down
Hold my hopes underwater
Stand there and watch them drown
Fishing out their bodies
From the bathroom sink
Leave them in a bucket
Until they start to stink
[Chorus]
I think I'll stay here
Until I feel whole again
I don't know when
[Verse 2]
Trout swim past the fishing lines
Sky gets dark and close
Cars start up and make
Their nightly exodus
On a picnic bench alone
I watch the lake go dark
Dig my nails into my palms, filthy
Hope it leaves a mark
[Chorus]
I think I'll stay here
Until I feel whole again
I don't know when
[Outro]
And so like, normally, we'd see each othеr all the time, like thе, it's been
It has been, I would guess
At least ten years since six weeks past
Without me and Peter Hughes spending time in a room together writing, so, but, uh
Quarantine has changed that
The pleasure of playing that song together as a group just now, uh
Huge for me, really awesome
Peter Hughes, what are we playing next?
"Younger"
"Younger"?
Well, that's by The Mountain Goats, I know that one
Sunset on Snohomish
Burn the tree line down
Hold my hopes underwater
Stand there and watch them drown
Fishing out their bodies
From the bathroom sink
Leave them in a bucket
Until they start to stink
[Chorus]
I think I'll stay here
Until I feel whole again
I don't know when
[Verse 2]
Trout swim past the fishing lines
Sky gets dark and close
Cars start up and make
Their nightly exodus
On a picnic bench alone
I watch the lake go dark
Dig my nails into my palms, filthy
Hope it leaves a mark

I think I'll stay here
Until I feel whole again
I don't know when
