"I wrote a song about being clear headed, we almost recorded it earlier; I think we’ll put it on the record. It’s about being sober, not exactly straight-edge and that extremity, but bettering yourself; sometimes people go through self-destructive patterns, and it’s about growing up and being a positive influence.


I want to write songs about being motivated and really persevere and get through hard times. People might think it’s cheesy, because a lot of bands are doing the whole “Fight!” thing. We want to be a positive and motivating influence for people that listen to us; we’re not trying to cry on songs, we’re trying to bring out emotion in the right way. We’re trying to make people go out and be active and do something. I think it’ll be something like Mutiny was lyrically; it was a very driven and determined record, where This Will Be The Death Of Us was a very introspective look and what we’re all learning, and Burning At Both Ends was a conclusive look at being a band for 8 years and how we’ve gone through stuff. This record will be a throwback to what Set Your Goals started on."
