Continuing the ambiguity of the previous song, Abel concludes the Trilogy on a rather triumphant note for both himself and Valerie. While both parties feel as though they are leaving the relationship as the independent instead of the dependent, both also leave a window open for the other to run back to them. This is as close to an emotional attachment as we hear throughout the Trilogy, because it’s almost as if neither wants the other to find somebody to love.
Ending the Trilogy on the break of dawn is also an interesting paradox in itself; the dramatic events of this project were immersed in the night and can finally close as a new, peaceful morning ensues. In an interview with Beats 1, Abel said that such darkness is good to have because “when the light comes it feels that much better.”
This song also continues an underlying theme of Abel’s imminent rise to the mainstream, as he notes that he already knows what to prepare for from his fans.
The third teaser for Trilogy includes this song as audio, showcasing what could be Valerie trying to outrun the lights of a chasing car, or the Sun. The image painted here draws another allusion to David Lynch’s Lost Highway.
