Lyrics
I step on you to sip on fire

I got this feeling that I can't go back

I got this feeling that I can't go back

I burn my eyes to see through water

I got this feeling that I can't go back

I got this feeling that I can't go back

It's always you in my bed

And in that bed, I saw our deaths

I need to sleep with my eyes on someone new

To all the fools that live in my heart

To all the times I played the part

I can blame all my mistakes I made on you

I step on you to sip on fire

I got this feeling that I can't go back

I got this feeling that I can't go back

I burn my eyes to see through water

I got this feeling that I can't go back

I got this feeling that I can't go back

I gave so much to feel you rush

And in that rush, I want your touch

I need to slip inside the night

Back into you

I am cold from what you've done

When it gets hot, you know I'll run

I will blame all my mistakes I made on you

I step on you to sip on fire

I got this feeling that I can't go back

I got this feeling that I can't go back

I step on you to sip on fire

I got this feeling that I can't go back

I got this feeling that I can't go back

I burn my eyes to see through water

I got this feeling that I can't go back

I got this feeling that I can't go back

Analysis
New Rush is the first single from Gin Wigmore's third album, Blood to Bone. Lyrically, the song deals with Gin's stifling relationship over the course of Gravel & Wine, and how she is eager to feel excited about love again. It also deals with being in your late 20s and symbolizes some of the most important life choices you can make during that time. After calling off her wedding, Gin moved to Los Angeles and there met her current husband Jason Buter. The song is primarily a folk rock stomper, with some noticeable electronic influence, starting off with subdued drumming before delivering hard kick-drums that pulsate through the entire track. Gin's signature voice comes in crystal clear, pushed to the front of the mix as the instruments respectively take a step back, with synths providing some pop influence as well.

The music video was directed by Zacahriah de Cairo, who also directed the video for Written in the Water. The entirely black-and-white video depicts a frightened and injured Gin running from a hunter, depicted by Dwayne Johnson, aka The Rock. There was also a video released of a live performance in the Live NYC Sessions.

The song was featured in the soundtrack for FIFA 16 and reached 39 on the New Zealand Music Chart.
