Produced by Chris Hargreaves, “Bring Me Down” is about watching yourself if you’re not happy with yourself and being aware that what you say to others could emotionally crush them. When speaking to The Line of Best Fit, Alex elaborated on this:

There is nothing worse than self-righteousness – to be in a place where you “know” you’re right is very dangerous. The best place to be is happy in yourself and if you are not, to be very aware that what you say to others may crush them emotionally. Often when people have little self-appreciation or control, they try to bring others down to their level, I wrote this after reflecting [on] meeting with someone who just couldn’t relate to happiness and seemed to look down on anyone who was genuinely happy in life.
