About the song and music video
“’Grew Apart’ is about the little lies inside the words we use when we’re hurting after a relationship ends,” says Woods.
“We wanted to tell a story in the video about men trying to help each other, and fucking it up, but trying.
Men seem to think that there’s some physical trial we need to put ourselves through when we’re lovesick – drinking, fighting.
The wrongheadedness of that idea is on display here. So often it feels like we can’t escape those breakup clichés.
The song and the video are about why that might be.”
Grew Apart gets:
/10.
