In an interview with TMRW Magazine, Sienna opened up about what the song means to her.
“Die On This Hill means a lot of things to me — but ultimately, whenever I hear it, I’m so reminded of myself,” Sienna said. “One thing I pride myself on is my loyalty. It takes a lot for me to let people in, but once I do, I’m locked in for that person, which is a blessing and a curse. I often find myself in situations where I’m losing myself to help others find who they are, and I think what I sometimes mask as stubbornness is really just a deep fear of only being a visitor to someone, and not meaning as much to them as they do to me. So in short, I think the phrase Die On This Hill feels like loyalty to me — and also that what’s sometimes masked as stubbornness is really just a fear of being temporary to someone.”
She added, “I think sometimes we hold onto things because letting go sometimes feels like we are admitting it didn’t mean as much as we thought and it’s less about the person and more the promise we made to ourselves. But ultimately for me, I am so scared of just being a visitor to people I stick around far longer than I should.”
