The Book of Love is Long and Boring

There is something about music-it hits you in the memory palace. You can reconstruct everything around you, what you knew and when you knew it-except it isn't true.

Because everytime the song comes out, you are slightly different. Imagine all the Russian nesting dolls wrapped around your favorite songs.

And all the love songs, you know why they exist?  Because "love" is long and boring and dull and annoying and frustrating and every once in a while, it's fun.  But we forget that part. So we have to set the good parts to music. It's a giant ad campaign to remind us not to kill each other.  To give people a reason to remember to make love instead of just fuck.

If we read the book of love when we were just starting out, none of us would be here.
