This was an end of relationship song, written on a Napkin at the Roxy nightclub in Vancouver. I used to ALWAYS travel with my guitar, as I had an obsession..
I was sitting in the nightclub watching a "player" - she was flirting, dancing, being a little crazy. I noticed how some of the nerdy guys (like myself) were watching, thinking they would never date someone like that.
I'm not putting my heart into you became "dark sky" to symbolize the woman trying to find love, the man refusing...the same Dark Sky ending every time.
