In the gothic yet dynamic “I Want to Believe”, the boys adapt a screamo strain to bring on a nefarious classic, serving as track 5 to Eternal Grey.

Both the title and perennial sample throughout the song is an allusion to the science-fiction drama television series The X-Files—specifically Season 1, Episode 4 of the program: “Conduit”. The sample is when Fox Mulder talks about the voice in his head. He responds with “I want to believe.”

Since The X-Files is based around alien and extraterrestrial conspiracies, this phrase is used to explicate Fox’s insouciance to the connivance of aliens themselves since his infatuation with them precludes these intrigues.
