Bonus, not recorded during the three days, but previously unreleased and somehow fitting. Lyrics by Edna St. Vincent Millay

lyrics

“Time does not bring relief; you all have lied”
BY EDNA ST. VINCENT MILLAY

Time does not bring relief; you all have lied

Who told me time would ease me of my pain!
I miss him in the weeping of the rain;
I want him at the shrinking of the tide;
The old snows melt from every mountain-side,
And last year’s leaves are smoke in every lane;

But last year’s bitter loving must remain
Heaped on my heart, and my old thoughts abide.

There are a hundred places where I fear
To go,—so with his memory they brim.
And entering with relief some quiet place

Where never fell his foot or shone his face
I say, “There is no memory of him here!”
And so stand stricken, so remembering him.
