In some hospitals when your relative one is in really bad condition they ask you if you would like to set your relative one free from the pain it may cause or just keep on trying. This song is about accepting that choice. He let his beloved one die and now he’s suffering from that person’s lost.

PROPOSED SUGGESTION: If i’m not mistaken it’s about his dog, who was euthanized, not a person, but I guess it could apply aswell.

Paolo Gregoletto (bassist of Trivium) to Kerran about this song:
“Matt [Heafy, vocals/guitar] has gone through some really big changes in the past year with the birth of his children, but at the same time, his dog was dying and it was a very painful experience of having life coming in as you’re losing something that is so close to you. It’s that crushing sense of loss as these great things are coming into your life. It was a really dark point – especially having to leave our tour to be with his wife while he’s preparing for the birth of his kids and some crazy stuff happening. That was one of the most personal songs on the record, and I feel like Matt’s usually best with that. There’s a lot of empathy in him, and when things like that happen it really affects him on a large scale and that comes through in the lyrics.”
