What part of your memory is selective and tends to forget?
What with this distance it seems so obvious?
I've been writing too much on forgetfulness.
Forgetting (yes) on what needs to be remembered.
Or worth remembering.

Cadd9, Dsus2
Decisions, decisions.
The many empty glasses were witnesses
to a conversation that brought things to a halt.
Thus began the long war.
The Heart & Mind vs Everything Else
Peculiar, but likely.
I will not dawdle on supposed rights,
supposed wrongs and supposed acts.
What is today, important, were the emotions.
Was the strength of his decision.
The conversations and the journey of the conclusion.

Weird G chord, Cadd9
It's funny, how certain lines,
certain chords,
certain songs,
certain smells,
bring forth emotions
that clearly belonged to that particular long week.
And the swirly weeks that followed.

The magnitude of madness is indeed humbling.
This? Yes. Madness is exactly what it is.
Ever since :)
