Providing further information about the meaning and the missive behind “Devil’s Den”, October Ends collectively adds: “This is a song about being in a situation that you’re trying to escape from. Throughout the track, there are scenarios that try to change the perspective of yourself. A lot of people feel like there’s only one way to resolve a situation they’re in, usually going for the easy way out. In this case, we’re trying to explore different paths to become the person who we really want to be.
