“If you stay, I'll do whatever you want. I'll quit the band, go with you to New York. But if you need me to go away, I'll do that, too. I was talking to Liz and she said maybe coming back to your old life would be too painful, that maybe it'd be easier for you to erase us. And that would suck, but I'd do it.

“My beautiful, my Isobel. My Love. You ask me to wait. And so I wait.

I will see you again.”
― Kelly Creagh, Nevermore
