    And also, the track really really reminds me of Bad Religion, except a bit more minimal. It's one of many songs on the album that really use the guitar in a unique way as it has this very dream-like but dreary vibe. Then you have Frank's vocal performance on the track which he just goes all out for in the beginning, as you really do feel his feelings of confusion and fear. Then you have the string arrangements from Jonny Greenwood that crescendo with that "this feels ironic" vocal edits which is just one of the most satisfying musical moments in 2016. The rap part is also very cathartic and the repeating of the ending lyrics "I'd do anything for you in the dark" are just ugh, so f---ing good.

    Hopefully that clears things up a bit!

    Also love his interpolation of Elliot Smith's lyrics. "This is not my life, it's just a fond farewell to a friend."
