“Our first song, ‘Chemicals,’ was about coping in an unhealthy way,” the band says. “‘Slip Away’ is the natural progression of that. It’s the next part of the story. It’s losing yourself in your habits until you become unrecognizable. It’s the pain when you come-to. It’s self awareness and it’s hurt.
‘Slip Away’ is struggle you face when you meet yourself where you’re at. It’s the pain when you look in the mirror honestly. It’s a rude awakening.”
The band continues, “When we wrote the video for ‘Slip Away,’ it was important to tell the story of the song, whereas ‘Chemicals’ was more a day-in-the-life sort of video. You have this person, bound to the injured version of themselves, connected as one and confined to a space they can’t escape. They separate and see their hurt before them. The bandages come off and it’s loud, it’s vulnerable… it’s unpredictable. Only through acceptance and embrace can they find peace, but even still, in a space they’ll never leave.”
