"Mvt. VII Home" is the dramatic finale of "Cheryl," which Knight wrote after they had already finished tracking what they thought was the entire album:
"I guess after making a huge ornate symphony about self-definition, I arrived at the edge of a cliff and said: ‘Ember, u big baby, who cares? This is grandiose nonsense! You’re going to die! Rejoice!’. And you know what? That is actually a huge relief. I don’t have to save the world, and if I did, it would just be messy again because everybody is sharing it. No matter what we do, good or bad, we are all stuck together, and headed to the same place: wherever tf we came from.I hope that when you hear it, you can feel that this isn’t nihilism at all. It’s a freedom to love life, instead of trying to fix it- because that’s when the real adventure begins."
And although this track is the conclusion of the LP, it feels like the beginning of something bright and beautiful for Ember Knight.
