Turning suddenly dreamy, “Swimming Home” is a a loving goodbye from someone who is dying. When speaking to Kerrang about “Swimming Home” she discussed the song’s meaning. “It’s goodbye,” she said. “It’s partly about the acceptance of death. I love that song because it’s not angry and it’s not perfectly happy. It’s sad but it’s accepting the things in life that are hard — like someone leaving this world and feeling the peace of crossing over.” “Erase This” walks through the landscape of needing to burn it all down and start over.
