Discover the story of the song > Rapture – Declan McKenna

The song talks about the protagonist feeling trapped in a world full of chaos and destruction, and he questions why his love for his partner doesn't make sense. He feels like he's constantly playing catch-up and has lost interest in everything. He describes this feeling as a rapture in his head, as if he's already dead. The chorus repeats this feeling while the outro uses the phrase "jet black" to describe the darkness that the protagonist is feeling.
