Pictures of us sharing songs and cigarettes
This is how I’ll always picture you

Over it
Think I’m getting over it
There’s no getting over It

It starts with a descent and I’ve arranged the songs according to their themes into nine circles, just playfully reflecting Dante’s nine circles and then an ascent at the end,” Hozier said.
