The song "Forever Came Too Soon" is the emotional centerpiece of the record.

A track that also focuses on broken promises and the pain of an early goodbye in a relationship.

The lyrics are written from the perspective of someone facing their own mortality (dying from cancer) and attempting to come to terms with the fact that their "forever" is ending much earlier than expected.

While Herbert's album is the most prominent "paper" or work with this exact title, other artists have used similar themes:

Herbert wrote the song after the death of his uncle, who he considered a second father, from cancer.
