This song is inspired by the 2013 film "Pacific Rim". In the film, humanity builds titanic robots, called Jaegers, to battle equally titanic monsters, called Kaiju, that emerge from the Pacific Ocean and attack our cities. In order to pilot the Jaegers, two human pilots merge their minds in order to share the neural load ("Two minds that were made to merge"). The song is written from the perspective of Mako Mori, who has desired to pilot a Jaeger since she was a child ("So long I waited for the chance to prove I was right") and doesn't want to be kept away from the fight. "The Crush" refers to the epic clashes of Jaegers and Kaiju.
