Their sophomore album, Illuminate, featured a new line-up: Evan Aranbul replaced Forsgren, Mindy White replaced Sais De Sicilia, and Craig Taylor replaced Brinton; a second guitarist, Ethan Koozer, was also added. Illuminate garnered extremely positive reviews and gained the band increased recognition. They toured extensively throughout the country and participated in the Zumiez Couch Tour, Vans Warped Tour, and The Bamboozle festival.

Always Move Fast
Lydia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cause there's a horrible crash
We're standing on the highway
A girl and her dad
Would you say
It's far to much for me
It's far to fast of scenery
And your lips are moving words
That cannot breach the noise
Just remember always move fast
We know you, we own you
Go home, and leave me at the door
We can stay outside of your house and just
Wait for the morning
Well I heard you can't stay too long
The mornings got you worried
The sun holds a sea of troubles
And an early drive away
So I guess I will stay for a while
I guess you knew it from how I smiled
I guess there's no hurry
More like fucking nursery
I'm a beautiful child
Just remember always move fast
Cause I've seen your sadness grow
And it swallows these days until it hurts
To breath
She whispers
Thanks for your time tonight
But you are not awake yet
You are not awake I swear
It's all been in your dreams
Of nothing tangible
The girl, this house, the highway
Your mind made it real.
So just remember always move fast
The lyrics of Lydia's song "Always Move Fast" seem to explore the themes of disconnection, uncertainty, and the impermanence of existence. The story starts with a girl and her dad standing on the highway after a terrible crash occurs. The singer asks, "Can we take the streets?" which implies a desire to take a different path from the chaos and uncertainty of the situation. The girl and her dad seem to be a metaphor for the fragility of life and how quickly everything can change.
The singer then reflects on the fast-paced nature of life, but how the voice of the person they are talking to provides a sense of grounding. However, even though they are talking, "words that cannot breach the noise" suggests a sense of disconnect, like they are not fully communicating, or there is too much external noise for proper communication to occur. The lyrics emphasize the importance of always moving fast and how it can help one deal with the constant changes taking place.
The song's ending highlights the importance of staying grounded in reality, as the singer is reminded that what they experienced was just a dream. This realization brings to mind the idea of the "illusory nature of existence," where everything may seem real and solid, but it is ultimately temporary and changing.
