• Cole Gallagher used Joan of Arc as a jumping-off point for the lyric, which tells the story of a romance with a girl who is "pulling out your hair, screaming in the mirror, like Joan of Arc up in flames."
  
  "It was her wearing armor," he explained. "She was dressed like a man, and she made people uncomfortable because she was so strong. She had to go. I thought of the armor as the walls she puts up."
• "Lines In The Sky" is the first track on Cole Gallagher's debut EP, The Confluence. Vance Powell produced it, and musicians include Jimbo Hart (bass), Sadler Vaden (guitar) and Chad Gamble (drums), all from Jason Isbell's 400 Unit.
  
  "That song has a steady urgency that I think subconsciously was inspired by a Charlie Watts kind of drumming," Gallagher explained on the Songfacts Podcast. "You listen to any Stones song and the whole way through, it's very consistent drums. He's not doing a bunch of crazy fills."
  
  "There's a lot of palm muting on that song, and it just kind of chugs along," he added. "But it was really when I took that into the studio that it came to life. Jimbo Hart really took the lead. He and Chad helped me take the seven-minute song and reduce it down to four."
• The music video, directed by McKone Corkery, has Gallagher as an outlaw on a crime spree with his girlfriend, played by Ernestte Bejar.
