Lambert Explained The Creation Of This Song Source Maintain The Pain Songfacts "I Had That Title For A Long Time In My Head And I Couldn't Figure Out What I Was Going To Do With It. It Started Out A Little More Mellow. But The More Intense The Lyrics Got The More I Thought Okay This Needs To Be A Rocker. I Wrote It At My Farm In Oklahoma. I Went Over To Blake 's And Asked Him To Play On The Demo Just On My Garage Band With Me. And He Added That Guitar Lick Which Is So Signature To The Song Now. I Told Him He Still Doesn't Get A Co-Write! But He Added That Cool Sound To It And He's The One Screaming In The Background."
