Overview

Band commentary

Anna Waronker: “Never Want to See Your Face Again” was initially on an acoustic EP I included with my last solo record California Fade. The arrangement was very bare, and I really loved the song, so I thought it would be great to do a version that was that dogged out. It was one of the songs where we intentionally left room to include some extended that dog. family. Josh Klinghoffer plays piano and some weird keyboards and Graham Coxon plays some of the guitars. That was really fun.

Lyrics

When you wake up in the morning
What do you see
Do you see me
Or are you too caught up in what you believe

If there was ever a better time
To put yourself aside
It was with me
Because what I brought to you means everything

And I never want to see your face again (Ah)
No, I never want to see your face again (Ah)
If I ever have to see you (Ah)

Believe me (Ah)
It won't be pretty, no no no (Ah)
Believe me (Ah)
It won't be pretty, no (Ah)

How many times in how many years
Have I sacrificed
Paid a tall price
To only find myself ill-advised
I put our lives in your hands
Stained with blood and pride

We put our lives in your hands
Not to compromise
All I know is I'll be damned
If I turn a blind eye
The consequence of negligence
Is way bigger than me
In spite of you we came out safe
But you'll be sorry
