Genius Annotation

Daniel reflects on his past relationship with his lover; she’s moved on, yet he wants things to stay the way they were. The contrast of perspectives on his relationships throughout the album shows his ever-maturing mindset. Although Caesar’s reminiscing shows growth, there is constant reminder to his previous lover that their love wasn’t just a feeling existing within a successful relationship, but continues on without fault even after their breakup. The song acts as a trauma-dump-esque song for listeners; a relatable song for anyone with a desired lover.

Daniel tried to release this song during a listening party for his fans on Instagram Live, however, it was taken down for copyright.
