Interpretation of the song







After listening to the song all the way through a few times, interpretations of what the lyrics mean are able to be formed. When we listened to the song as a group, Alfie, Joe, and I verbally brainstormed what we thought could be going on at particular points of the song, and tried to create a possible story line for the song itself. This helped us understand the song in more detail, and also gave us a good idea of how we would go out and film the music video.
The way we have interpreted the song may not be the same as how the artist interprets but we feel our interpretation works well for us.

We believe that the song is about a couple going through a rough patch in their relationship. The song is from the mans perspective of what is going on. He is saying that he knows his relationship is not working but he desperately wants to give it another go, his girlfriend however, isn't so sure that she wants to be with him any longer. The lyrics say that whatever happens he will always be there for her. 'You're gonna make it to the other side' shows us that he is confident that they will get through this tough time, and will, in time, be happy again.
