Songs that Make Me Think of Nat (the hooman) [with audio reading and audio singing]

Written by:

I started this playlist when I started talking to Nat in April this year and continued adding to it with the songs with asterisks being after we broke up. I am sure I will continue adding songs to it as I process our breakup however, below are the lyrics of the songs that stand out from my current perspective (broken up less than a week).
