I wrote this after watching someone very close to me go through a devastating break up, and it made me reflect on some things I have been through. I kind of wrote this to share with my friend that we have gone through the same things, and I feel his pain exactly; the "gutted like a pig" line and "all you want is the world to bleed" were taken verbatim from a convo we had, so in a way he should get partial writing credit on this song.
