"'Lotus Inn' is a song we wrote to end our live show with, it has that epic encore feeling. We were inspired by the 'lotus-eaters' in The Odyssey, and a scene from the first Percy Jackson book/movie (The Lightning Thief) where they get stuck in 'The Lotus Hotel and Casino' – indulging in lotus flowers and drinks before they realize a few hours had actually gone on for days. Our lyric 'staying at the Lotus Inn' captures the idea that while partying can be a hell of a time, it can definitely side track you."
