In Their Words: “During the writing of this album, I was working through past trauma in therapy. That experience strongly informed my writing for this album, and I think that’s especially present on ‘Gasoline in the Morning.’ The song, for me, is about mental health, its upkeep, and ultimately, reevaluating what you allow to propel you forward…what you use as ‘fuel.’ It’s easy to get caught up in the speed of life, sometimes to the point where you’re running on fumes, leaning on old habits. I think there’s a hesitant hope within the song. It’s that universal feeling of trying to attain some sort of balance within life, and just not quite knowing what steps to take to get there. Some days that balance feels more elusive than others.” — Rhyan Sinclair
