Behind The Song
I wrote this about a personal relationship that ended abruptly and really affected me mentally. It was one of those relationships you could see spending a lifetime with but the other person doesn't feel the same. Where it almost kinda feels like the right person, wrong time. This song kinda goes through the motions of how i felt after the breakup. Sad, confused, and some anger. You know that stage where you just feel completely lost. You have this sinking feeling in your chest that never goes away, and you would do or try anything just to feel normal again? I wanted to make the lyrics more dramatic because, well the first couple of days after a breakup, I feel kind of crazy. The things I say, the things I do are probably pretty dramatic, and I know that, but the rush of emotions get the best of me, so that's how I wanted the song to feel.
What inspired this song was also one of my favorite albums by Counterparts, “The Difference Between Hell and Home”. If you’re into melodic hardcore music I would highly suggest checking them out. The writing in that album has such amazing poetry, it’s always stuck with me. Counterparts
