Polaris‘ drummer/lyricist, Daniel Furnari, explained where the group was coming from with ‘Hypermania,’ discussing an every-day feeling of disconnection and defeat and needing something to help take off the edge, sharing via a recent press release, that:

"Hypermania is a song about losing your grip on reality, questioning your sanity, and feeling like you’re on the verge of an explosion all the time. Paranoia, mood swings, white-knuckling your way through the day just barely holding it together. The whole lyrical direction was inspired very directly by the music itself."
