Probably the blackest, darkest fantasy to come out of Justin Furstenfeld's head, and it's brilliant in its morbidity. I imagine it's the companion piece to "Come in Closer" and really, the downside to the upside of it (though I imagine thinking of that song as light is hard, but compared to this, anything is). It's a simple song to get though; think about it. Man knows wife is cheating on him, man gets sick at the idea and snaps, then commits murder-suicide. It's really an odd choice to put at the end of "Approaching Normal" but nobody can say they lost their edge with this one. It makes me shake listening to it, but it's definitely my favorite.
