Defect memories in a cage by my bed

not precisely sure how to play this final riff; i know daneil does it live (with
one guitar, obviously), but i can’t figure out how with the E string tuned down
as it is. apologies.

| This lyric may have been from natalies point of view, to me hes saying that natalie came to daniel when she needed him when she had time for him, this lyric is anger she wasnt there when daniel needed her just when she needed daniel. So when it suited natalie when she could fit him in she arrived! | |

| Caesium...I've been wondering the same thing.... When he has time to commit the act of murder, or when he has extra time? Oh well. ::Shrug:: I guess it's one of those double entendres. I love those. :) | |
