Boundaries frontman Matthew McDougal had the following to say about the the meaning behind the track:
"The premise of the song is laid out very plainly and intentionally. It exists as an extension of the Colin Parkes quote: ‘The pain of grief is just as much a part of life as the joy of love; it is, perhaps, the price we pay for love, the cost of commitment'."
The song was written in the aftermath of the 2025 plane crash that claimed the lives of Dave Shapiro, Kendall Fortner, Emma Huke, Daniel Carmelo, and two others. Several of those who died worked with the band through Sound Talent Group, the company co-founded by Shapiro, who was piloting the aircraft at the time of the crash.
McDougal added: "With the sudden and violent loss of a number of people close to the band this past year it became impossible to not write about the bereavement and the subsequent emotions. As much as it hurts to miss these people, I hope with all my heart it never stops so that I may miss them with the weight and significance they deserve."
