It’s A Desperation Song I’m Trying To Save Something That Is Already Over. I Originally Wrote It Two Years Ago With Some Friends Of Mine Called Friendship And It Was Sitting Around. It Didn’t Come Together Or Feel Quite Right It Wasn’t The Right Time. I Was In The Middle Of This U.S. And Canada Leg Of The Tour And The Production Came Together Super Out Of Nowhere I Cut The Vocals In A Hotel In Toronto." – Lauv Via MTV.
