Discussing the track, The Formalist share, “We think ‘Finite’ is in some ways the most personal or intimate song on the album. We were first writing it during that period of time in New York in early Covid, when people were worried about what could happen. It was a fragile time, and it was like everyone in New York felt like they were at risk of losing people, or had lost someone.”
