Neil recently told Radio X that Tiny Indoor Fireworks was about "trying to do your best when everything you seem to do is wrong"
He went on: "There's a line in the song like, 'I can't do right for doing wrong,' and that's kinda what the song's about, but it's about retaining the positivity, about praying for the better days."
