\n“WIRED” is about how sometimes it feels that we are set up to feel and behave in certain ways beyond our control. That no matter how hard you try to hide it, eventually it will come out \u2014 either by choice or by force. This song was almost lost \u2014 a few of us were into it, but it sort of lost traction for a bit. Then one day it cropped back up and we put it at the forefront of our minds and it ended up being one of my favorite songs to perform and record.<\/p>\n
“Broken By Design” is about giving something your absolute best and realizing it’s destined to fail. Getting to the other side of the situation, looking back and deciding to do everything differently and feeling grateful for the opportunity to grow. We\u2019ve all done a lot of work on getting better at talking to each other as friends and as band mates. Sometimes that’s an easy distinction \u2014 or rather, not a distinction at all. Other times, the lines are blurred and we lose track of who we are and why we do this. When I’m singing, “let’s go back to the start” I mean to when we did this purely for fun. For an excuse to see each other, to travel, to be creative, to express ourselves through music. We all feel so lucky to be in a position to still get to do this and this album and this song in particular, is us trying to go back to how it should be.<\/p>\n
