"A song born in a dream, after 10 days of plague-level sickness I fall finally asleep. Only to wake after a few hours with this cursed song on my fevered brow. Complete, all of it, from A - Z. I struggle with a guitar and a tape recorder and pass out. Days later I got married in a Catholic church. I married a dream. The best day of my life. But then someone woke me up. I wish I was still dreaming."
