Periphery Lyrics

I think this song is about peripheral vision, in the sense of the saying "hindsight's 20/20." I believe Fi is talking about how she realizes, looking through corners of her eyes (peripherally), that what she had with the man meant nothing, and that she doesn't believe it was worth all she went through emotionally. This one hits home :/ Love u Fi
