PREMIERE | MORE EPHEMEROL "Obituary Templates"


"Obituary Templates" is a song in tribute to loved ones who have passed. The lyrics discuss how no words alone could ever be enough to encapsulate an individual's entire existence when that individual was such a quintessential part of shaping your world.
