This tune is a four-and-a-half minute long piece of lyrical pathetic fallacy for the soul, the perfect song to listen to as you stare out the window at the rain.
Here we have a captivatingly composed post breakup song that subtly describes the longing for that person, which never really goes away.
The lyrics beautifully wrap together feelings of sadness, anger and longing. It takes us on the journey of being content and discontent all in the same thought:
"You told me to go to the light
And what it's like to feel your pain,
Now I'm okay if you're alright.
I start to wonder why I came
I dreamed of things you said to me"
At its core the song the song is about wanting to go back in time because, quite frankly, that's when things were at their best. It's bittersweet and tender and explores how going backwards to relive how things used to be makes much more sense, and offers much more comfort, than moving forwards.
The instrumental bridge will pull you out of your body and allow you to float around in the rainfall-esque sound of guitars, keys and drums. It both puts you completely at peace and gives you space to contemplate all the things that have been dragging you down.
