    When the music breaks down at then end, I imagine it like a old style film reel stuttering to a stop. Then the scene shows Spine sitting in a dark room alone, the "memories" having been projected from his head onto the screen while he sings the last part. Hella good song!

    3 Things about this song.
    1. Spines special someone is a Cyborg.
    “And it soaks into our skin, though mine is metal, and yours is flesh”
    Then
    “They can hear *our* motors turning across the land”
    2. He’s definitely crying at the end.
    3. I’m definitely crying.

      But he does say "both of *our hearts* intertwine"
      So him saying our moters earlier could be the same as this, afer all The Spine doesnt have a human heart, he has a moter that accts like one, and his love, *PROBABLY* doesnt have a moter, but *PROBABLY* has a heart that acts like one

    Recently lost my greatest relationship with someone I’ve loved for over a decade and god this song is so cathartic. I miss her so much every day and I hope I never forget the memories I have. Simultaneously comforted and gutted by the lyrics in this song.
    Thank you SPG for everything

    Dammit, Spine, stop being so amazing at putting so much emotion in your songs that my heart implodes.

    Wow! The ex and I had an amicable divorce several years ago. Just recently moving, I found a box of photos.
    This song really kicked me in the feels. I guess I'm a bit of a masochist, as it hurt listening to this; yet, I loved the pain. It made me realize the twenty years we had together were worth missing this morning - and in a ironic twist, made me appreciate who I have in my life now as we make our own, new, photographic memories.

      Rood67 I’m happy you’ve found peace in such a time that is riddled with emotions both heavy and cold, yet burn inside you so deeply. I hope you continue to work on yourself and your future. I’m sorry for what happened but I wish nothing but love and happiness in your future, wherever you are

    I remember back when I first started listening to SPG, I could only find the demo of this song on Soundcloud. It was such a great and beautiful song and I always wondered why you guys never officially released it, but now I'm glad you guys kept working on it, I love this version!

    Awesome, I remember hearing an older version years ago on Tumblr or Bandcamp I cannot remember. Either way I'm so happy a version of this song was released. The original I heard would send chills down my spine and tears down my face. It was a nostalgic sadness with a bitter sweetness. This version is still good but doesn't feel as heavy in tone, but still and incredible song.

    Salgexicon is my favorite SPG video, but this is by far my favorite song on Quintessential. It’s like “Here, let’s break your heart before telling you about Leopold!”
    Almost as bad/good as Airheart, my favorite song on Two Cent.
    In fact, what’s up with y’all tearing our souls out at the end of albums???

    I remember listening to the original song that David submitted on Tumblr many years ago. I used to listen to it daily and even if I don’t have that song with me anymore I love this version more :)
