The song was finished on January 29th and represents “the worst 45 days of my life.”
Paul Klein said of the song, "I’m so proud of how I walked through that season. I made the absolute most of it. I’m not just a better writer and a better artist, I’m a better person. I feel so much more in touch with who I am and how I think and feel.. It’s been the most productive 45 days of my life."

The band said of the song in a statement;
"the beginning of 2018 was crazy and kind of awful but also kind of amazing and i threw myself into an environment to write a song every monday thru friday up until valentine’s day. it was the worst of times, it was the best of times… but actually it was the most special of times. i got to spill my guts, talk my face off, gather myself, and write songs that were honest to a fault and cathartic to a saving degree for my soul.
'thru these tears' is especially important. at the time – i was writing it for me. but now that i’m healed and whole, it’s for you. i am 1 in like 7 billion that have experienced some sort of disappointment or pain. but i know more than anyone that therapy is just talking it out. and if i can put into words what most can’t, and give people something they can sing along to and hear themselves “talk it out” to, then maybe i can do my part in making this world a better place."- source : Variance Magazine
