{{ | "Give Me Your Blessings" was written by [[Rivers Cuomo]], likely in late [[2001]] (or possibly early [[2002]]). On a Olympus handheld digital recorder<ref>''[[Alone II: The Home Recordings of Rivers Cuomo]]'', [[Alone II liner notes|liner notes]]</ref><ref>"Maladroit Preview 2021-12-27 14.38.mp3" ''[[Alone VIII: The Maladroit Years]]''</ref>. This demo was released in [[2020]] as part of the digital compilation ''[[Alone VIII: The Maladroit Years]]''.

<poem>[...]ground letting your soul unwind | |||
Everyday words that you say | |||
Letting you to my mind | |||
Oh girl | |||
I want you | |||
Now that you're gone | |||
Give me your blessings one more time | |||
There was a day I need you to say nobody else came close | |||
Now I can see the other's like me | |||
Who do you love the most? | |||
Oh God | |||
I want you | |||
Now that you're gone | |||
Give me your blessings one more time | |||
I don't need anyone | |||
I'm not the chosen one | |||
[...]now begun today, today | |||
Oh God | |||
I want you | |||
Now that you're gone | |||
Give me your blessings one more time | |||
I don't need anyone | |||
I'm not the chosen one | |||
There's ??? begun today, today | |||
There was a time I need you to say nobody else came close | |||
Nobody else came close | |||
Nobody else came close | |||
Nobody else came close</poem> | |||
