This EP was recorded Sunday, Sept. 12, 2010 at East Hall Recording in Fayetteville, AR.
All instruments and voices were recorded in the isolation booth, into one microphone, and the songs were then mixed to mono.
lyrics
Oh Jessica did you know that you’ve been
Runnin’ round with my heart?
And I can’t stand being apart
You know it makes me sad…so sad
How I wish I could be where you are
It’s getting harder trying to hide these unhealed scars
And how I wish I could just get out of this bar
But I can’t…not today
Oh Jessica, why’d you go runnin’ off so soon?
Around late May and early June
Everything seemed fine…so fine
How I wish things could be like they were
Now on my best days, I feel broken and unsure
How I wish I could just get up off this floor
But I can’t…not today
And I still read the letters
I never sent to your old home…everyday
Two words stronger than the I and Love and You
They said please stay…they said please stay
Oh Jessica, I’m comin’ for to carry back my heart
Before you tear it all apart
Just give it back…just give it back
How I wish to go back all those years ago
And I’d cut out my tongue to prevent our hello
I’d like to think I would be better off
But I can’t…not today

An album that gets better with every listen. It was already in my top 10 of the year, but it just keeps pushing higher. Lydia Loveless is so damn underrated. William Boyle
