“Making this EP,” she said, “I wanted to do it in an honest way and really make it a natural process. After making my last record, which was very produced, I wanted to head to the studio and record it straight as it sounds. I wanted to capture the live sound and I wanted to get the grittiness on tape. It is really interesting – when creating you ignite your brain. So, when recording my last album, I already started to make the EP. Like a closure and beginning at once.”
That, then, is the crux of this song, which comes to a head in the chorus: ‘When I needed him / When I was bleeding for him / He didn’t walk out on me / Oh, he just left.’ Yet, really, the person in the song never actually leaves. He’s in the very fabric of this song, her words, held captive by and frozen in a memory that never truly fades.
