Broken (Commentary)

Joachim Speidel:

So "Broken" with Luma was one of the first tracks that we finished on this album. It's very interesting because the production is all very upbeat, but the lyrics are super sad.

Stuart Brookes:

Yeah, there's a bit of contrast in the actual song itself between the lyrics and the instrumental.

Joachim:

Basically, it's about like the baggage after you come out of a relationship and just being afraid of being vulnerable. And like, putting yourself out there when you're like in a new relationship, basically.

Stuart:

Yeah, one of the important lines in it is the singer says, "Please don't leave me broken," and it's just the idea of being scared and being vulnerable and hoping that things will work out in your new relationship.

Joachim:

Yeah.
