Firefight from EXHIBIT by Jenny Owen Youngs
"Firefight" was inspired by a trip to The Museum of the Moving Image.

This is the seventh installment of a new song project: Exhibit.
Every Tuesday for 8 weeks I will spend time in a New York City museum. Within one week's time, I will compose and record a song inspired by the visit.

Lyrics
FIREFIGHT
You don't call
You don't write
Not since the fall
Not since the firefight
Well you believed it was the end of the world
The last I saw of you, you cried...
Strapped in tight, and waved goodbye
And so far
You don't call
You don't write
Not since the fall
Not since the firefight

Avalanche, Youngs’ exceptional debut for Yep Roc records, offers up an achingly beautiful exploration of loss, resilience, and growth from an artist who’s experienced more than her fair share of each in recent years. The songs are deceptively serene, layering Youngs’ infectious pop sensibilities atop lush, dreamy arrangements that often belie the swift emotional currents lurking underneath.
