We imagined the song as coming to terms with the fact that your relationship just isn’t working anymore. You’ve both grown up, and things are different. The common tragedy of being deeply incompatible with a partner you already love. In the verses it’s the things you say to your lover, and maybe to yourself too: I can change, I’ll do better, I’ll be better. And then the chorus of realizing the other shoe has already dropped, knowing it’s already over, soberly, if you really ask yourself.
In classic TWINKIDS fashion we of course tied some loss-of-innocence nostalgia into that idea. 911 we’re sad!
“Over upbeat electronic instrumentation, Fukui’s lilting voice and longing lyrics often recall those of Perfume Genius’ Mike Hadreas. ”
