i wrote a song that might disappoint my mother and i feel bad but it's about being afraid of growing up

Innocence

quick sunday afternoon recording of a jaymay song woohoo yay exciting

You Are The Only One I Love // Jaymay cover

frank calls this "the emily rap" and it's my song that metaphorically ties up the loose ends that we never did

It's Not That I Don't Love You

i’ve told you a million times you’re not someone to just get over
and i know this never works out right, you could never hold me, not unless we were older

& i woke up from a dream, the middle of the night,
found you weren’t next to me, pretended it was fine, you can’t make this any better
& i saw you leaving & i chased you down outside,
told you i still love you, but i know, yeah, it’s alright, you can’t make this any better
not unless we were older, not unless we were older

& we both know exactly how this ends, so it’s safer to just keep our distance
but it always comes right back to you, & i’m falling at your feet, for the second time this week

& i woke up from a dream, the middle of the night, wrote you a novel about wishing we were fine
i can’t make this any better
& i saw you leaving & i chased you down outside,
told you i still love you, but i know we can’t change minds, i can’t make this any better

& it always comes right back to you,
& i know it, & you know it, & the rest of them do, too
& i keep singing these songs to you,
the first one only five days short of hitting on year two
& i know this never works out right,
but when i look into your eyes, i feel like putting up a fight
& it always comes back to you,
yeah, we know it, yeah, we know it, yeah we both know that it’s doomed

not unless we were older, not unless we were older

not unless we were older (jan 2016 voice memo version)
