Burke Shelly later stated how this song, as well as another song on the album 'Truth Drug,' is about the "concern for the lack of honesty/integrity in the world."

The song itself revolves around the importance of transparency and real feelings, suggesting that only when we embrace the truth can we find true happiness and satisfaction. It also references John Lennon with the line "love is like Lennon said," which is a reference to John Lennon’s belief in love as a powerful and sustaining force, comparing it to bread, a basic necessity for life. It's a metaphor that emphasizes love's fundamental role in human experience and the idea that it should be freely shared.
