Every Sentence

Jandek · Other Songs - Jandek

Hold me, hold me, let me stay with you

And be hauled (?) in your presence

I will stay forever

I will never go

I'm creeping, crawling, begging at your feet

I have no power

I don't want it

All I wanna do is stay here in your arms

And love you, love you, love you

I have decided there is nowhere else to be

Kiss me, kiss me

Take me in your arms

And never, ever, never go away

I give my everything without questions

I adore the floor you walk on

Can I walk the floor with you

Please, please be there when I wake up

I want to breathe the air around you

To touch you, feel you, know you

Take away the world

So every sentence, you're the subject, object, verb, and preposition

You're my words and every sound I hear

Keep me, keep me

Always be the thought that I'm thinking

Never in existence is there any other thing to change me

I stop here

I open up your door

And I close the door behind me

And I fall down flying, flying in the air with you

And love me, I love you

Every Sentence

Jandek's 'Every Sentence' stands as a quintessential example of his enigmatic, minimalist approach to electronic music. Released within the broader context of his discography, the track exemplifies his signature style: sparse, repetitive, and devoid of traditional melodic resolution. The recording captures the artist's unique ability to create tension through silence and mechanical precision, characteristic of his work from the late 1970s onward. Rather than offering narrative resolution, the piece invites the listener into a meditative, almost unsettling soundscape that defines his contribution to the avant-garde and experimental genres. It remains a staple in discussions regarding the evolution of industrial and noise music, reflecting Jandek's commitment to creating art that prioritizes atmosphere over conventional structure.
