Recorded in West Brookfield, MA at Slate Hill Recording by Alan Day in the spring of 2019.
lyrics
Your skin, I thought was perfect
I wanted you more than I should have
I wanted you more than I should have
Stretched thin, your intentions so transparent
How come I couldn't see through them
How come I couldn't see through them
Take me as I am
Or just leave me here alone again
I guess it's not that different
Some days I still miss you
But most days I just wish we never met
I used to think you were a stroke of genius
I used to
You had me
You had me
You had me right where you wanted
Until you wanted something else
Someone easier to live without
So I just hold my breath and brace myself for the worst
All I wanted was your attention
I knew I couldn't have it
Take me as I am
Or just leave me here alone again
I guess it's not that different
Some days I still want you
But I heard you found a fine replacement
And I wonder
Does she love you like I used to
Take me as I am
Or just leave me here alone again
I know it's not that different
We were once such deep red
But now we're blue again
And I wonder
Oh, I wonder
Does she love you like I used to

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche. dani_bloop
