The general theme running through the album is one of self-doubt and loss.

The opening track, "Wish You Were Me" begins with an acapella vocal stating, "I know one thing, and that's for sure, I can't win." After spending the album looking at the hardships of life through various eyes, the album ends with a repeating mantra "Well, maybe it's me" in the song "White Label", referring to problems with substance abuse and mental health.

Songs such as "From Under You" and the title track deal with nostalgia, the desire for a simpler time or childlike innocence. This a theme also found in the last record, Monsters and Marbles.

The songs "Wonderful Insane" and "Long, Long Saturday" deal with failed relationships, "Bandstand" deals with failed dreams, and "Fuzzy" along with "Flight Of Ideas" look critically at alcoholism and drug abuse.
