Much like in previous tracks, here, Mike compares his current state to that of his parents. His parents were most likely separated, and his father is now passed, which he relates to his current separation from his partner.
[Verse 1: Owen]
It's just an ordinary kiss
Before the avalanche hit
It's those little things I miss
The unadorned habits formed
Fifteen years of insignificants
[Chorus: Owen & KC Dalager, Owen]
Mom and dead
Never together
Forever
An overseas
Tragedy
[Post-Chorus: Owen]
I don't know who I am
Without you, and her, and him
[Verse 2: KC Dalager, Owen, Owen & KC Dalager]
Wake up
I had a dream you died
I can't
Wake up
You didn't say "Goodbye"
[Chorus: Owen & KC Dalager, Owen]
Mom and dead
Never together
Forever
An overseas
Tragedy
[Outro: Owen]
How long can we exist
In between
What we say
And what we mean?
How can you live without me?
Who'll pour your drinks?
Who'll make your heart beat?
