Cover art for Populace in Two lyrics by From First to Last

i honestly think this songs about the old singer and sonny and the band replacing him like it was planned "just burn the photographs and bury all the pages that we knew in short this is a long goodbye to unexpecting you".

I don't think its about Phil, "I'm better off alone than I would be in your arms", doesn't seem to fit to that idea.
