Thank God getting into the music pulled me out of my head. It could get suffocating in there with all of the words pressurized and plastered on the insides of my eyelids.

The session went down smoothly, as always with these two. They were perfect components; holographic puzzle pieces that shone in perfect synchronization as the music tilted the mood of the room. I’d never seen a couple fit together so perfectly in and out of the studio, and by the time we’d finished recording, I knew that somehow, some way, they’d tapped into something in the realm of genius.

Fulfillment flowed through me as I we finished up, completely satisfied with the session.

I loved being a producer. I loved helping young musicians, mentoring them, getting them contracts, negotiating for them, and pouring creativity into the world. It was my purpose. It was my outlet.

Music in all shapes and forms was the only way I could escape from my obnoxious mind.

Hell, I was so in the zone that I didn’t even think about Grace again until it was time to pack up.

Mea popped into the control room to grab her purple purse and more words fluttered through my head:

♪ Purple dress, purple purse, purple prose,

♪ Wonder when Spoken’s gonna propose?

♪ Rose Red Stephen King shit, violet blue,

♪ Sweet sugar sweet nothings sweethearts sweet tooth

♪ (Dentist drill sound)

♪ Yeah I’m bitter. I prefer bitter,

♪ Dating apps suck, man call me a quitter

♪ Swipe right hit it, I done it, it’s done.

♪ Scooby whodunnit villain this isn’t fun

♪ Anymore I’m like Velma with her glasses

♪ Can’t read between the lines,

♪ As soon as I come, like always

♪ Fuck that ‘always.’ I’ll be real with you

♪ I want a different ending

♪ Show me the way with the words you aren’t sending

♪ Shit, show me the ropes. Show me the path, show me the light

♪ Cuz I can’t see it, I’m a creature of the night

♪ (Raven voice: Nevermore!)

♪ Anyway.

♪ All the best regards, Friar Lawrence sends:

♪ These violent delights have violent ends
