Meaning:
This song is about that life long friend that we all have and need, it takes the listener on a journey from the friends perspective of looking after a person just as they have split up from a bad relationship right through to when the person is getting back on their feet and becoming their self again.
When and Why It Was Written:
I wrote this track in around 30 mins including guitar riff and vocals, i just seemed to pluck it out of thin air and once i started writing it just came to me. I wrote it after making a conscious choice not to try and force myself into a horrible place in order to write a deep yet depressing song but instead to focus on what i was feeling at that exact moment.
How It Was Recorded:
I recorded the guitar part first in one take and then simply recorded the vocals over it in a second take, i recorded it this way because I use an audio interface with two XLR inputs and when recording the guitar they are both used due to using a DI and a super cardioid condenser mic to get the best sound but unfortunately there is no way of recording my vocals as my microphone requires phantom power.
Lyrics:
i know things don't seem that bright
someone came and stole your colour left you black and white
but this is why you have me to say
you wont feel like this forever things wont be this way
we've been here time and time before
love keeps knocking but never at your door
but one day it will come for you
until that day iv got your back il help you through
i love you
i always have i always will and i always want to
say i love you
so whenever your feeling down again
come to me my oldest friend
cuss i love you
time alone is time well spent
i said those words with meaning and every word i meant
so when your world is turning grey
il get my brushes get my colours and il begin to paint
cus
i love you
i always have i always will and i always want to
i love you
so whenever your feeling down again
come to me my oldest friend
cuss i love you
friendship is a fickle thing it comes and goes like the autumn wind
but if you doubt me then please don't go, stay with me and you'll always know
that
love you
i always have i always will and i always want to
i love you
so whenever your feeling own again
come to me my oldest friend
if you feeling its not your day
come to me and il always say
i love you
