David and Soren had been writing songs together for over three years (for respective solo albums that have yet to see the light of day) when they realized that they had unintentionally started a band. The pair had experimented with every imaginable style of music (every imaginable style) and suddenly recognized that the combination of their musical sensibilities, as witnessed on the 300 songs theyd penned together, created something new and interesting. Plus, the rambunctious, beat-driven nature of the songs offered Soren a chance to freak out and go crazy onstage while David showcased his impressive break-dancing moves.

Fall Into These Arms
New Politics Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Vodka bottles in my bath
I kiss better when I'm drunk
Sex is best when you're not in love
Though we've only met
I want to wake up in your bed
Scars are beautiful to me
A heart that beats is a heart that bleeds
On with the show the world is our set
I'll play Montague, you'll be Capulet
There's no tragedy tonight we are alive
Fall into these arms
And spend the night na na na na
With a stranger like me
Fall into these arms
And spend the night na na na na
With a stranger like me
Let's steal a police car
Like the rock stars we are
We can drive around
With the head lights off when the sun goes does
No one needs to know
How far that we go
We'll share a cigarette
And we'll blow smoke rings 'til we have a halo
On with the show we so persevere
I'll be your Lancelot Guinevere
There's no turning back tonight we feel alive
Fall into these arms
And spend the night na na na na
With a stranger like me
Fall into these arms
And spend the night na na na na
With a stranger like me
(In my arms)
The lyrics of New Politics's "Fall Into These Arms" describe a carefree night of recklessness and passion. The singer of the song starts with a confession - their cell phone screen is cracked, and there are vodka bottles in their bath. They then reveal that they kiss better when they are drunk and believe that sex is best when there is no love involved. Despite only having just met this stranger, the singer already wants to wake up in their bed. They find scars beautiful, and acknowledge that a heart that beats is a heart that bleeds.
The chorus of the song is an invitation to the stranger to fall into the singer's arms and spend the night with them. They suggest stealing a police car, driving around with the headlights off, smoking cigarettes together until they have smoke halos. They continue with the theatre imagery, with the singer wanting to play Romeo and Juliet's roles with the stranger as Montague and Capulet. They reassure each other that there is no turning back and that they should live in the moment.
The song gives off a very youthful and energetic vibe, with its carefree and reckless lyrics. It's a perfect description of living in the moment and enjoying life to the fullest without worrying about the consequences. The use of theatre imagery adds a romantic element to the song, with the singer wanting to play out a love story and feel alive through it. The lyrics are well-crafted and paint a clear picture of a night of adventure with a stranger.
Line by Line Meaning
My cell phone screen is cracked
My phone is damaged, but it doesn't matter to me
Vodka bottles in my bath
I like to drink and it's all around me
I kiss better when I'm drunk
I feel more confident and affectionate when I'm intoxicated
Sex is best when you're not in love
I think casual, physical relationships are more enjoyable than emotional ones
Though we've only met
We've just met, but I'm already drawn to you
I want to wake up in your bed
I'm feeling a strong attraction to you and want to spend more time with you
Scars are beautiful to me
I find beauty in the imperfections and experiences that have shaped a person
A heart that beats is a heart that bleeds
Being alive means feeling both joy and pain
On with the show the world is our set
Let's keep going and enjoy everything life has to offer
I'll play Montague, you'll be Capulet
We can be whoever we want to be and explore any part of ourselves
There's no tragedy tonight we are alive
For this moment, we are free and alive and nothing can bring us down
Fall into these arms
Let go and give yourself to me
And spend the night na na na na
Let's be in this moment and not worry about tomorrow
With a stranger like me
Spend the night with me, even though we barely know each other
Let's steal a police car
Let's do something crazy and fun
Like the rock stars we are
We're living life to the fullest and feeling invincible
We can drive around
Let's explore and see where the night takes us
With the head lights off when the sun goes down
Let's drive in the dark, taking risks and living on the edge
No one needs to know
This is just for us, and we don't need anyone else's approval
How far that we go
Let's see how wild we can really be, and push past any limits
We'll share a cigarette
Let's take a moment to just be together, and enjoy each other's company
And we'll blow smoke rings 'til we have a halo
We'll create something beautiful, even from something as simple as smoke
On with the show we so persevere
No matter what happens, we'll keep moving forward and enjoy the ride
I'll be your Lancelot Guinevere
We'll play the hero and heroine of our own story
There's no turning back tonight we feel alive
We're taking risks and living in the moment, because that's what it means to truly feel alive.
Fall into these arms (In my arms)
Just let go and be with me, feel the connection between us.
