And now you're mistaking affection for a bandage over the bullet wound infection

Two shots from behaving transcendent

I ought to depart from this depression
This flary era of mourning

Recordings of yawning between sweet arms I was holding and knowing they're going soon and I can't hold anything down

To bear the inescapable warning
I ought to depart from this depression
This era of mourning
