“The first half of this song could be about tyrants. But it could also be about anyone who thinks that a little more control is gonna make everything ok. The second half is a response to that developing reality of the first half.

The second half is all about the process to maturity — that there was something so much greater beyond, a whole world I hadn’t discovered yet.” - Sylvia Kay
