 What was the inspiration behind "Far Apart"?

 "Fall Apart" started as a song with Mint Decot and I and was originally much more somber with a simpler, groaning instrumental paired with sadder lyrics. After revisiting it with a fresh heart, I edited the lyrics and made a whole new instrumental that was much brighter and held much more hope.

 Can you tell us about how you created the lyrics?

 The lyrics take parts from the original but are now much more positive and radiant.

 How would you describe this new track to listeners?

 This song is a good indicator of what my next album will sound like. I'm aiming for faster songs that keep the orchestral and airy feel of my past songs. 

 What do you hope listeners will think, of you as an artist, when listening to "Far Apart"?

 I hope people hear fall apart and feel the care that mint and I put into it, and those healing things can blossom from something made in a dark frame of mind at the time.
