"as we grow up, we become a different version of ourselves that we may or may not identify with. I wrote this song after seeing old friends of mine and feeling like we couldn't pick up where we left off...there was too much uncomfortable ground we hadn't covered. too much that happened that we didn't want to retread. the masks represent how our identities change through the process of growing. at the same time they remind me of halloween in the small town I grew up in, where we spent many nights of rebellion looking for our true selves as if they were hiding. I had a sense of lost youth even when I was a kid, and I don't think that feeling has gone anywhere today. even if this is growing up." - Dylan Owen
