DUST Song Meanings
Posted: Sun May 01, 2016 2:39 pm
So while there hasn't been an official track-by-track interview of Dust yet where they explain each song, there has been bits and pieces of information released about what some songs mean.
'Dust' is about how it feels to watch a close friend lose confidence in you
‘Dust’ is about losing faith in people.

‘Tore My Heart Out’ is more a kind of song about complaisance in the world.”
'Rising Storm' Yeah that is the kind of song inspired by when I see all these religious holy wars and the hatred that is possibly growing from violence on both sides. When you fight it, it just creates more violence in the world, so it is this kind of double edged sword and a cycle of hatred.
'Unable To See' That song is just about how music in my life has really been my escape and no matter what twists and turns life’s fate might take me on, it will always be. Being as professional as possible in music is what drives me in life.
‘Betray Me’ is obvious about someone who betrays people.
‘My Last Mistake’ is about someone not having the guts to say no to someone who comes in your life with very bad influences.
So while there's still some songs left undefined even to the smallest degree ('Never Wrong', 'Once Dead, 'The Cage', 'Catching Fire', etc) I figure we could give our opinions on what we think those songs mean, or even expand on some of the other songs Mark may have already mentioned. Once he talks more about the meaning behind the songs on Dust, I'll update the OP so it's easier to find.
