What is Better days (never come) about?
Better days (never come) closes Remedies for nothing by questioning the advice everyone gives: it gets better with time, keep your head up, the sun will come out. What if they've been wrong all along?
It's the album asking its biggest question out loud, and it fits the title of the whole record. There's no neat answer, no remedy. Just the honesty of saying it, which is its own kind of relief.

Slow and building, closing the album on its heaviest emotional note.
