Alexa play ‘we’re gonna know each other forever’ by bleachers
Literally every single thing about this was perfect, I will literally never be whole ever again
The juxtaposition between the peace and forgetfulness and the vivid violence, the process of memory and forgetting, the blend of humanity and monstrosity
‘It would be the saddest thing to me, princess. To walk separately from you, when the ground will let us go as we always did’
‘Is there some great secret known only to dying men?’
‘Some of you will have fine monuments by which the living may remember the evil done to you. Some of you will have only crude wooden crosses or painted rocks, while vet others of you must remain hidden in the shadows of history.’
‘A wound that healed slowly, but heal it did.’
‘'Farewell then, Axl.'' Farewell, my one true love.'’

'I wonder if what we feel in our hearts today isn't like these raindrops still falling on us from the soaked leaves above, even though the sky itself long stopped raining. I'm wondering if without our memories, there's nothing for it but for our love to fade and die.'
'Yet are you so certain, good mistress, you wish to be free of this mist? Is it not better some things remain hidden from our minds?'
(...) 'We'll have the bad ones come back too, even if they make us weep or shake with anger. For isn't it the life we've shared?'
'I'll never , never give her up.'
(...) 'You've known a long time now there's no cure to save her. How will you bear it, what now lies in wait for her? Do you long for that day you watch your dearest love twist in agony and with nothing to offer but kind words for her ear?'
'How can old wounds heal while maggots linger so richly? Or a peace hold for ever built on slaughter (...)? I see how devoutly you wish it, for your old horrors to crumble as dust. Yet they await in the soil as white bones for men to uncover.'
