Is "The Tornado" from Owl City's new album "Coco Moon" based on a true story?

It is physically impossible to stump me, MP3. I am the master of Owl City trivia. There is no question I cannot answer.

No, I believe it is based off of a video game on the Nintendo switch. I can’t remember the name though. However, I believe Adam took the story of something that happens in the game and compared it to events in his own life. I believe anytime he says “it’s always darkest before the dawn” is a reference to his song Lonely Lullabies. There are other lyrical similarities as well. The story in The Tornado is somewhat used as a metaphor to his heartbreak and depression regarding Annemarie, but also how he got through it
