Discover the story of the song > Dragon Eyes – Adrianne Lenker

The protagonist is feeling conflicted and upset. She's lying frozen on the edge of the bed, chewing a cigarette, and thinking about the things she's said. She doesn't want to blame her partner for anything. The stars outside have a clear view of everything, even without the bedroom light on. They don't want to blame her partner either. The protagonist thinks of her partner as having silent eyes and being gentle. She doesn't want to change him but just wants to be with him. The protagonist feels that being with him is changing her, and she wants a place where they can be together.
