"I sort of called it my Smashing Pumpkins/ Silversun Pickups riff, as it used the open E strings while going back and forth from maj 7th note to the tonic, which is pretty common among those bands.
Then one morning, after going out with some friends, I wrote the song based off the feeling I got from the night, where I didn't really care about 'what I should be doing' and 'where I should go' and basically 'what people think about me'. Letting go I guess of all common things we do sometimes to try fit into society, like wanting to take pictures for social media etc. to make yourself look like you have a 'fun life' or whatever.
After that night, it made me realise that I don't need to waste my time doing things that I have no interest in. Basically, summing up what you go through when you're growing into adult, and I just don't have time to care about things that don't matter to me. I pretty much sat and wrote the song out in an hour."
