I try not to elaborate too much on the metaphors, but here’s something I haven’t told a lot of people. We have an older song called ‘It’ll Be OK.’ It’s directly about me fantasizing inside of the depression of someone with a tortured mind, like Kurt Cobain. I really connect with him. I have my own torture. I’ve been impacted by his poetry, his philosophies and music, obviously. On this new song [a bonus track called ‘My Own Cobain’], it’s another way into my depression and expression of that turmoil.
