The second new track on the EP ‘feel anything’ touches on the feelings of life on hold, something the majority of the world got a taste of thanks to the pandemic. Digging deeper, vaultboy shares: The pandemic has kept a lot of us at home, but one thing I realized during quarantine: I felt the same type of cabin fever you get from staying inside for too long, but for being stuck in your hometown. I think a lot of people who’ve lived in one place for a long time have a tendency to feel trapped, and that’s where this song comes from. The feeling of desperation and dissatisfaction with the life you have, and wanting to feel more, bigger, and deeper!
