James: "This is one of the most stripped back songs we've put on a record. We felt it was the perfect way to end the record and the perfect closing statement. This song actually shaped my approach for the whole record as far as the lyrics go. I played the demo to my friend in the car one day and she started crying, which I took as a good sign cause I'm a sick bastard. I use a lot of metaphors in my lyrics but this song doesn't really contain many and is the most straight up I've ever been. I think this record is the most dynamic record we've ever produced and this song proves that. I think playing our stripped gigs really benefited this new album. We weren't afraid to put a song that was so stripped back like this on the record. After seeing people react really well to it at our gigs we have been playing it with a minimal setup."
