About this song
The experimental pop track was first previewed near midnight on November 30, 2021, and quickly became a fan favorite. Soon after its first snippets, it replaced another song, "dogs! dogs! dogs!", on the final tracklist of the album old dog, new tricks.
What it's about
Using Greek mythology and storytelling, the song follows a partner who slowly slips out of the relationship. As glaive reflects on his newfound success, he sees the flaws in the relationship and loses himself, with the sun serving as a symbol of that peak.
