this would've been an initial iphone recording done right after writing the song, so this is a "worts and all" kind of take.
lyrics
one day you will wake up and be glad you did
and i'll be right beside you, like i always was
now that we're not the same kids
who built these mountains between us
you don't want him and
you never did
all he wanted was to get
as far away from here as possible
with you
one day you will notice your frown beginning to fade
washed off of your face by autumn rain
we'll look up at the stars and see such different things
i'll see your face, but you won't see me
i'll be lost in the rain
you don't want him and
you never did
all he wanted was to get
as far away from here as possible
with you
one day you will wake up and be glad you did
and i'll be waiting for you to crawl back into bed

straightforward, no huge production or walls of guitars, but Chris tickles the heartstrings with melody, and that's the true hallmark of a great songwriter. The Insurrectionists
From the first moment I heard Will Toledo's washed-out screams on Boxing Day, I knew he'd "make it". Here we are, 2 years later and he's on Matador records. Sometimes, the world rewards talent. The Insurrectionists
In Adrian Snood’s songs, soulful vocals and slow-moving alt-pop swirl together to create something distinctly moving. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 1, 2023
