Monsters" is a gripping track that takes listeners into the deepest, most vulnerable thoughts of someone who suffers from anxiety. The song acts as a beacon of hope and sets the theme for the rest of the EP. Other featured tracks, "
Chase" and "Happy Pill" are honest and raw, and each song is distinctly different from the other. "

It was important for Anthony to write music that people can connect with. The diversity heard on Words To Hide Behind makes it effortlessly intriguing and relatable. "The title, Words to Hide Behind, is about the masks that we wear in everyday life," explains Anthony. "We hide from our feelings by saying words and phrases that don't really tell the truth. We bottle things up and deal with them in an unhealthy way, and all three of these songs heavily address that."
