Lyrics
According to a lyric feature written by the album's principle song writer Martin Johnson, the lyrical content of the songs is semi-autobiographical.
Our self-titled debut goes through a series of events throughout the track listing, representing the last two years of my life. Though the songs weren’t composed with that in mind, once they were all recorded it became apparent that there was a story of love, loss, youth, and angst for the future that was waiting to be told. The songs go from optimistic songs and love songs to loss and breakup songs, ending back with “Holiday”, which starts the sequence over and symbolizes moving on and cycles in everyone’s life.
