Background

After the joint venture of A&M records and Octone Records, the debut album Flyleaf contains the radio-edit version of the song, replacing the album version. For unknown reasons, the music video features the radio edit instead of the album version. The radio-edit contains a variation of the guitar solo heard in the album version along with extra lyrics.

It's about the singer for Trust Company, Kevin, his wife Layla. She's an awesome person, and you would never guess in a million years that she has the struggle that she has. Kinda changed my perspective about the way that I complain about things, the way that I wake up sad for no reason, and then she wakes up just glad to wake up.
