George Romero Will Be At Our Wedding: A love story that takes place within George Romero’s “Living Dead” films in which a man is searching for his estranged wife in a post apocalyptic world overrun by reanimated corpses. Just as he is completely overcome with grief and the fear that he has lost his beloved forever, he vomits and finds his wife’s wedding ring and the remnants of her fingers in his upchuck. He reluctantly recalls devouring her, and realizes that he himself is dead and has been for quite some time. Though his wife is dead, and though he has committed an unspeakable sin against her, she was killed by her own husband; their love is so powerful that she conquers death in order to be with him, forgiving his transgressions with no hesitation.

“If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.” “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.” “Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.” “And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love” -1 Corinthians 13

Wrote the main guitar riff after listening to a lot of Nirvana and Everclear, the main synth riff heard throughout the verses was developed by JG and myself at practice and the Misfit’s type pre-chorus came together naturally.
