Composition
[edit]In a statement while releasing the song, David said: "When I wrote this song I was getting out of a very dark place, I was feeling emotionless [...] I think the song was a way to make myself make sense of what I was feeling and look at it from a less scary prospective".[4] Containing dramatic vocals and an anthemic production,[5] the lyrics of the song explore emotional numbness and fear during a relationship.[3]
Music video
