‘hiccup’ addresses the feelings of grief that come along with a breakup and softens them with pop melodies and airy harmonies. Hiccups are like little texts your mind receives with attachments of photos, memories, and locations. Where there’s no “Do not disturb button” to help process losing someone...
[Verse 1]
If I could be anybody, I would be you
Maybe I'd understand the things that you do
Stuck at a costume party, dressed in your shoes
If I could have anybody, you know that it would be you
[Pre-Chorus]
And I get this feeling in my chest
And you're not here now to offset it
All the memories I can't suppress
Poured into my heart like cement
Like that night we had in Chicago
When you pulled me up to that roof
And we played god with the people
Below us in their toy cars
I would be lying if I wasn't before
[Chorus]
Why do I miss you like I miss you?
Now you're out of my life
I wanna know what you're doing tonight (Mmm)
Damn, we were something now we're nothing
And I miss what that's like
I wanna know what you're doing tonight (Mmm)
[Verse 2]
If I could be anybody, I would be you
Keep my emotions in a box like you do
And do you ever think about coming back to kiss my mouth?
I miss the taste of you (And it's always been you)
[Pre-Chorus]
And I get this feeling in my chest
And you're not here now to offset it
All the memories I can't suppress
Poured into my heart like cement
Like that night we had in Toronto
When you pulled me up to that roof
And we played god with the people
Below us in their toy cars
I would be lying if I wasn't before
[Chorus]
Why do I miss you like I miss you?
Now you're out of my life
I wanna know what you're doing tonight (Mmm)
Damn, we were something now we're nothing
And I miss what that's like
I wanna know what you're doing tonight (Mmm)
[Bridge]
Wanna know what you're doing tonight
Wanna know what you're doing tonight
(And I get this feeling in my chest)
Damn, we were something now we're nothing
(And I miss what that's like)
[Outro]
Why do I miss you like I miss you?
Now you're out of my life
I wanna know what you're doing tonight
We hit a roadblock and a hiccup
You went on with your life
You never listened
We really fucked up this time

‘hiccup’ is the story of a person that you once knew everything about, and they knew everything about you. Maybe you were ghosted, unfollowed, or blocked. Regardless, the time you spent together feels like an illusion and despite your best effort to get over them, a small...

we’ve always identified the ‘hiccup’ video concept as being a sentimental sequel to the song. It feels like the last phase of a breakup where you finally reclaim your sense of self again; doing things for you again, surrounded by good people and a genuine sense of closur...
