“I wanted to write a song that made me uncomfortable. What makes me comfortable is a pop song structure with sweet lyrics. Taking those away allowed me to write a mournful mantra using sounds and structure that are new to me. Playing this live will be a trip.”
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you

Go
I’ve made a grave mistake (Mistake)
True love miscalculated (Calculated)
My nightmare turns to day (Turns to day)
I can still feel you in my space
Why did you?
How could you?
I want to
Where did we?
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Go, go, go
Keep it all locked tight
In the middle of the night
Think I'm doing this right
It wasn't my fault
I called out
This is too much
I've had enough
I get so sick of you calling my bluff
Know that you won't
What if you don't?
How 'bout you sit back, let it play out (Go)
How 'bout you sit back, let it play out
What if you don't?
How 'bout you sit back, let it play out
I called out (Go)
I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you
Where did we go? I love you

It took about 8 months start to finish. I did the first few lines lines and the beat and stuff in my studio at home and then I finished the last verse and all the weird funky noises in a hotel room in Hawaii.
The song talks about the overconfidence we might have in our heads and then the complete insecurity we might have in the next breath. It’s a bit of a chaotic state to live in when you’re in love with somebody, and we can be a lot to deal with just as much as our other can be a lot to deal with for...
I set out to write a song that was nontraditional in terms of, “verse chorus verse chorus blah blah blah.” I think there’s a bit of discomfort in that from the writer standpoint but also from the listen standpoint. I think we’re really accustomed to listening to this really standard format song.
