Spencer normally labels his sequels but the content of this song suggests that it's related to Fast Peter, possibly a sequel but from the girl's perspective since Peter was the one who was leaving to go and see her. Lines like "set fire to these computers we had to use until today" (a reference to how they met online and only talk on their computers), or "we both know we are both crazy" (could be applied to when "Peter's leaving town" and they say "who even does that anymore" because it's pretty drastic). Either way amazing song and definitely my favourite from the album. |

| The Decemberists – Grace Cathedral Hill Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This song is so personal for me for more reasons that I can express in words. Really, I'm just grateful that it's been written, and one day, I hope someone hears it, and knows what she means to me. | |

I always heard that line as "For my love had been true". It's the past tense referring to why she would weep a thousand tears. Also, the missing piece here "in the ... in time we depend " I think should say "And although my heart broke, in time it did mend". That's how I hear it, anyway, and following it up with "except when I think about..." means that she's healed, until she thinks about their relationship, and then she's heartbroken again. Great song, anyway. The first one I heard by them, and still my favourite. |

| I'm confused about most of this song, but something I'm sure of is that Julie is Juliet, as in Romeos. Hence the suicide and the stage references. | |
