"Jenny (that’s her real name) is a girl that, in my opinion, messed up one of my best friend's lives -- just by being a bad influence. So I just wrote a song about it.
I actually don't know either of them anymore. Up until the last year or so, I've never been able to write about a current event. So, when I wrote “Jenny” it was about something that had happened three years earlier. It was easy for me to reminisce and look back at it with a fresh view.
In a way, writing about past events is kind of like hiding because find yourself unable to write about what’s currently going on in your life. I needed to start doing that, and come out of hiding."
Quoting the singer of the band:
