Lead guitarist Wolf Hoffman says of this song that it's really talking about the state of the world that we live in, whether it’s environmentally or politically. There’s so many problems out there, and sometimes you start to wonder, how do we actually manage to keep going? I think we all find a way to tune out these problems because otherwise you would go crazy. But sometimes you wonder, “How can we just sit here idle and go on about our lives?” Well, I don’t know. The rainforests are being burnt down. The climate is getting worse, and politically everything’s going to hell. So it’s definitely worth thinking about that sometimes.
