Hope is not something you can just place in your back pocket or put your fingers around – it’s the belief in a world that has yet to exist.
Jon Foreman

As far as when I'm writing a song, I think I'm writing first and foremost for myself.
Jon Foreman

When our world falls apart and we have no more faces to wear - that’s when it’s beautiful, and that’s when we change.

For me, I want to create a environment for the songs to live in. So one song by itself only tells a piece of the story, but in the context of the album, more of the colors are revealed.
