Guitarist Dalton Casto comments on the song, “The lyrics draw inspiration from optimistic visions of the future, which are often disrupted by unforeseen changes. It suggests that an excess of confidence can lead to deception and a sense of complacency. The presence of external influences, symbolized by the rolling of dice, can result in losing one’s sense of direction and feeling adrift.”

Cradle of the Wicked is set for release on October 27. Pre-save the album below.
