about

John Farrell on "Sudden Realization":
“‘Sudden Realization’ is the most up tempo track on the EP. Just as the title implies, the song came together very suddenly. In fact, it’s probably the fastest I have ever written a song. In order to convey that message lyrically, I didn’t let the song become bogged down by deep metaphors and similes. This allowed the lyrics to remain raw and very straight forward. The song’s about realizing a situation, and willing you’re way through it no matter how deep of hole you think you’ve dug yourself in.”

lyrics

When was the last time that you came to that sudden realization?

Staring back at you in a department store window, and mirroring that somber face.

When was the last time that you knew you were ready for tomorrow?

Racing for each breath that can’t come soon, soon enough to catch me.

And I made a mess of this I know, but I think I can make amends.

Forgiveness is oh so close to you, but such soreness will break and bend the best.

I think this is the last time I’ll tell you exactly what I’m thinking.

I’d rather shut that door than let what little light in,

Melting all this trust that’s left and gone.
