Note that at the time of this song's writing, 13,000 people in Michigan had died from COVID. At the time of this EP's publication, that number has more than doubled.
Verse lyrics were taken both directly and indirectly from obituaries of COVID-19 victims and were therefore not entirely original to me.
The twelve deceased commemorated here are as follows:
Mohammad Jawed
Lonnie Norman
Irving McPhail
Gary Woodward
Choua Lee Yang
Bethany Nesbitt
Jamesha Waddel
Guadalupe Lopez
Michael Lang
Wendell Smith
Richard Barr
Rose Mary Blackwell
