Things have been crazy

But I should tell you that I think of you each night
Em D C A
I rub my nipples and start moaning with delight
[EVAN, spoken]
N.C
Why would you write that?
[JARED, spoken]
N.C
I’m just trying to tell the truth.
[EVAN, spoken]

This needs to be perfect. These emails have to prove that we were actually friends. Just—I’ll do it.
