Cathartic opener 'Grey Gardens' - its title derived from a dream abstractly related to the Toronto restaurant, but not the 1975 film, which he cites as another coincidental false memory - presents the record's plaintive, haunted feeling. 'Even if not reading into lyrics, sonically I wanted it to feel like you're being pulled into a universe. Not fantasy or otherworldly per se, something more tangible, of the body and mind', Casey says. 'Hearing it back, I realized this track was the key to unlocking it'. His tender falsetto hovers above ambient washes and echoed keys, each word falling carefully in the crevices. 'Asleep At The Wheel' unfolds on arpeggiated synth before a burst of symphonic color; the synth returns inverted to harmonize with the outro, 'I love a car crash, I love a story, I love a memory, I swear it's real...'.
