When speaking to The Line of Best Fit, Marika said that this track, the fourth on the album, was about “wanting to look after my friend, because she takes too many drugs”.
[Verse 1]
I hold my head up and I give it all that I have
I'm living up for the night
And we won't go back, we won't go back
Keep on and hold your hair up, running out of the line
You're running out of the light
You gave it away to blow your mind
[Chorus]
We won't go back, we won't go back
To blow your mind
We won't go back, we won't go back
To blow your mind
[Bridge]
God knows, when you're feeling low
I try to bite my tongue
You got blow when you're feeling low
I try to bite my tongue
[Verse 2]
I hold your head up and I give you all that I can
Come on, open your eyes
'Cause we won't go back, we won't go back
Keep on, I'll hold your hair back, heave it up to get by
Another bottle of wine
She can put it away and blow your mind
[Chorus]
We won't go back, we won't go back to blow your mind
We won't go back, we won't go back to blow your mind
[Bridge]
(Try to bite my tongue)
(Try to bite my tongue)
Blow your mind
God knows, when you're feeling low, I try to bite my tongue
You got blow when you're feeling low, I try to bite my tongue
[Chorus]
We won't go back, we won't go back to blow your mind
We won't go back, we won't go back to blow your mind
[Outro]
To blow your mind
To blow your mind

I wanted every instrument to have a purpose in the part that it was playing, not just be a wash of color or for some atmosphere. On this track there’s funky basslines interlocking with wild drum parts and then a space where the jagged, gnarly guitar lines stick out. I’ve never written like that befo...
