about

Written and recorded in a bedroom with one microphone and no overdubs August 26th '21

lyrics

You look different than who I recall.
...I'm just alarmed...
Gray hair on the top of your scalp.
I always thought that I'd watch that develop.
The gleam in your eye is now gone.
Believe me, that's not what I prayed on.
I heard that the dog finally died.
I ain't seen him in years and I cried.
Lord, I cried.
I think that I'm used to you gone.
