“Far Too Young to Die” is about a magnetic romantic connection and youthful urgency.

The concept of being ‘far too young to die’ is a feeling common to youth, and causes young people to often behave irrationally without assessing the consequences. This waning feeling of invincibility is echoed through the narrator’s desperation to pursue the romance before they are old enough to heed the consequences.

In an interview with Rock Sound, Brendon discusses the arrangement of the track, which unlike what Panic! has created in the past.

Most of it is electronic through the whole song, and then at the end, it just busts into this big rock moment to finish it off, which I really like.
