i wrote this song not too long after a brother died of suicide. i was running the trails every day to save my own life and somewhere in the process of processing my life and his, words came to me freely. i kept running the tails everyday to keep myself alive and during every run i was writing and rewriting words. eventually the music too found its way into my mind and suddenly i'd written a whole chunk of a song i love without a pen, paper, or instrument. i never bothered writing it down because it was so dominant in my mind at the time. and then, of course, it was gone. i couldn't remember any part of it for some time until one day out running it returned to me like a lover who'd never left...
