  • Guitarist and co-vocalist Russell Marsden came up with this song. Bassist Emma Richardson explained to Tonedeaf: "He had this idea about having a fear of everything, you know, which seems kind of an apt topic for culture today and anxiousness in general with people being anxious about the state of the world and what's happening."

    "It's got a different atmosphere to a lot of the songs we've written before," she added, "we were writing it and rehearsing it and it puts you in a certain mood when you play it.''
