The story behind Allison’s song:

Brother, sister, mother, father sleeping, standing underwater.

( I have a brother, a sister, a mother, and a father — My dad passed away from cancer a little over a year ago and it felt like we were all in a very sad dream. )

Sinking, swimming, floating, dreaming forward moving, backward thinking.

(sickness, fighting, hospital care, death — he went into remission, and then another biopsy came back and it had metastasized.)

Brother

Sister

Mother

Father

1 2 3 4 underwater. 1 2 3 4 underwater.

(1.2.3.4 — the amount of family members I have. Underwater — it felt like we were all experiencing this together and it was a very helpless situation/as if one was drowning.)
