[Verse 1]
I feel like you drift, then you disappear
Every time that I ask about your fears
And I need to know, how long will this last?
I've spent too many nights haunted by the past
It's hard to watch as you disappear
[Pre-Chorus]
You live like a ghost, but you're still here
Say, "I love you the most," but you can't hear
[Chorus]
And when we die, it's you and I
Maybe we'll finally make things right
'Cause I love you the most, but you can't feel
You can't feel
Oh, oh-oh
[Verse 2]
I'm lost in a haze and it's unclear
If we'll survive another year
Am I on my own? I'm fucking lonely
Every day feels like the same old story
It's hard to watch as you disappear
[Pre-Chorus]
You live like a ghost, but you're still here
Say, "I love you the most," but you can't hear
[Chorus]
And when we die, it's you and I
Maybe we'll finally make things right
'Cause I love you the most, but you can't feel
You can't feel
[Bridge]
(Ooh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
(Ooh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, oh)
I think I know what's happening (Ooh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Never saw the light coming in (Oh)
Can't go on, it's maddening (Ooh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
You'll always be my home (Oh)
[Pre-Chorus]
You live like a ghost, but you're still here
Say, "I love you the most," but you can't hear
[Chorus]
And when we die, it's you and I
Maybe we'll finally make things right
'Cause I love you the most, but you can't feel
You can't feel

The Word Alive frontman Telle Smith shared in a track-by-track interview with Alternative Press:
It’s electronic, and there is a really cool beat underneath. We wanted to capture what happens in electronic music where there’s a really cool buildup, and you know it’s coming, and instead of a drop, t...
