This song, on his original 2015 album entitled Cavetown has also been remade and re-sung on his new 2018 album entitled Dear. However, the lyrics remain the same, and so does the message. (Even though his voice pitch has changed since then, because we love a growing lemon boy)

[Verse 1]
You're falling further down but I've got you by a thread
I wrap the cord around my arms until my hands start to turn red
But it's not enough, it won't be enough to save you
Hmm
[Verse 2]
She's so in love with all the things I hate most about myself
I'm so in love with all the sounds she makes when she smiles, and well
It's a little tough, to put acorn shells on ice sheets
Without breaking through, and flooding the whole town
[Bridge]
I hope you're alright
I didn't wanna wake up last night
'Cause I quite liked the dream I had of holding your hand
It's funny how slowly time goes when my thoughts have been racin' all this time
[Verse 3]
It's alright to feel a little bit of darkness now and then
I know I've said it once but I still tell myself again and again
"You'll never be enough", but what is enough?
You're selfless, isn't that enough?
[Verse 4]
Banana bread before I go to bed will put the bees to sleep
Otherwise they'd buzz and sting my lungs all night inside of me
Just wait a little while, you don't cry too much
You know that when you smile, the sun shines more gently
