The song was written with rediscovered lyrics from an old writing journal, takes you on a journey through the brain into the depths of the body to explore the fundamental state of being.
With stark imagery of a character in a storm storm lead to the Reptilian brain – the oldest part of the brain which controls instinctive thinking and behaviour for survival – Conjuring our most primal selves and reminding us that behind the façade of human trappings, we are essentially all animals. The storm – an internal weather system, an apt setting for the ‘fight or flight’ response, which the Reptilian brain controls.
