Sam to me, explains the lives of musicians. That sometimes they're gone for so long and on tour, that by the time they make it home, their lover has moved on or has just lost hope for them. So it's like he's saying being a musician doesn't mean you get all the perks, there are consequences... Thank you Future Islands for creating such thoughtful music!

There are always consequences to following your passion, so passionately, you will naturally leave some others behind, but you must go forth. "It's ok to be someone nobody else understands"

Amazing song and story. Great song about resilience. Can relate-eyes are the windows to our souls- they can't lie, and our body has tells, and you feel the air around you is off...their voice- hesitation where there wasn't before... in your gut. It's broken...unfixable.. no going back after betrayal. But each day you feel so much more invincible afterwards...because you knew it was an illusion or a season. They change, come and go. Love this band so much. You are masters of the heart.

Pretty fuct up they love you for your heart mind and art but when you work 24_7 producing more and more and then work to scale it whether through merch and touring they turn around and try to destroy what they thought was there's. We are not possessions girls boys. We are humans also. Probably the main reason I dont play out anymore because of the love for my kids and the fact I couldnt live if they were to be taken away. I love. my wife but I'm quite certain her lack of response to all the songs I've written as opposed to her response before we were a couple she'd most likely out of spite find and use as a way out, but the road I chose.
