"What if I can't forget you? I'll burn my name into your throat, I'll be the fire that'll catch you."

Four years ago, you and Ryker were cruising through life with a healthy, loving relationship, on the course to a proposal and a set-in-stone future together. And four years ago, you left him without a word. He doesn't know why you ghosted him nor does he know why he keeps your things in his bedroom- the stuff you forget when you left without a trace.

The only good thing to come out of this was that it all went down just before his band broke into stardom. Now an ultra-famous group in the industry, topping charts and selling out every show they put out.

Tonight he's singing at a festival, headlining with his band when he spots someone familiar in the crowd... it couldn't be you, right? What level of audacity could someone have to disappear from another persons life and then show up front row at one of their shows?

Caraphernelia by Pierce the Veil

"Caraphernelia": a made-up term which refers to when an ex-lover leaves their belongings at their exes home/in their bedroom after the two breakup. It is derived from the word "paraphernalia."

First and last name meaning

Ryker: a gender-neutral name meaning “rich” and "powerful." This name was chosen because of his newly established power over his ex (you, lol) and to further emphasise how famous he'd gotten once finally free from the relationship.

Evirlast: a misspelling of the word "ever" combined with "last", referencing his everlasting love for his ex despite the wrath which he holds for them.
