chapter 1- Till Forever Falls Apart

A: The first track, or chapter, on this album... it was the first song that we wrote completely and recorded and as soon as it was done, I knew that it would open up whatever project I was going to work on next, whether it was just a personal one like the million other saved files on my computer, or well, what it came to be. This album.
The story behind this track is actually pretty funny. I wrote it at the start of quarantine when time no longer seemed linear and by that I mean when days and nights and weeks all started to blend into this mush in the so-called space and time continuum that we live in. Here's a little bit of some geeky, nerdy shit for ya.
It was around three in the morning I think, when I first started writing it. I was in this strange mindset, where everything just felt... almost hopeless. It was chaos reigning. I guess, entropy is the word for it, right? Maybe. But at the same time, you know, that night, this calm washed over me. I think weirdly, despite everything that was going on, I was doing the best I ever had in years. And I sat at this small keyboard in my childhood bedroom and I laid down the initial chord progression. The verse all the way up to the pre-chorus, the walk-down. Du-nu-nu-nu-nu... "I've got you and I know"... that one.
And as I repeated that, I felt it needed something else, so I transposed it to the guitar, this one right here and it just worked. I got the whole instrumental bit down in like, thirty minutes and I recorded them on my phone, actually.
The lyrics were a little harder, but I really enjoyed writing them. I think the hard bit was that, the song meant a lot to me even as I was writing it. And so, every time I wrote a line, I needed to make sure it was perfect. That it hit you just right.
So, I kept working on it until it was like 8 in the morning and I was just buzzed that I'd just written this whole song. I had to show it to someone, I was so proud of it. And I thought, hm, who better than my good friend Dorothea?

[Enter Jack]

J: right, and this Dorothea, she's....?

A: she's not a real person, obviously

J: Wait, she's not?
