"Tell them I was monument, tell them I was scripture. I beg of you before I'm six foot underneath the soil, before the maggots hug my corpse into a shivering carcass you tell them ... Was human!" Chills... Literally chills. These words will stay with me till I'm a shivering carcass... Thank you Carvens

I thought this was a new performance when I saw the title and then I thought why is KZbin bringing this golden oldie back up. I still love this so much. I miss Strivers Row

Carvens performed at my college a few years back. He was just as powerful in person. And so, so kind. ❤
