The Silverstein frontman explained the collaboration in an interview with Alter The Press!:
We finished writing the song and we recorded a demo of it and I sang his pa...
[Verse 1: Shane Told]
Single file you fall into
Another empty bottle
Growing larger, trapped inside
And now you cannot swallow all your pride
You’ll fall asleep alone tonight
With one day less until you die
Until you die
[Chorus: Shane Told]
One more time
You’ll confirm all our suspicions
While you close your eyes and lie
You and I
Will continue to discover that we're
Wasting so much time
[Verse 2: Shane Told]
Silver rings piercing the skin
We know you’re keeping secrets
Horizontal memories
Too many just to regret
Deep inside
You’ll fall asleep with them tonight
Penetrating in your mind
And not just tonight
[Chorus: Shane Told]
One more time
You’ll confirm all our suspicions
While you close your eyes and lie
You and I
Will continue to discover that we’re
Wasting so much time
[Bridge: Anthony Raneri]
Looking back
All the stupid drama that painted my world black
Holding hands
Was the gateway drug that led to the mess I’m in
But I won’t give up
I won’t lie down as you take away my friends
[Outro: Anthony Raneri & Shane Told]
Don’t try to change me now, whoa
(I know I’ve lost your heart, I might never get it back)
Don’t start to judge me now, whoa
(If you could peer into my past you’d see just how much love I’ve lacked)
There’s been a hundred lows (hundred lows)
But there has been a million highs (million highs)
And now we’re wasting so much time

Shane Told explained to the Alternative Press:
We reworked this song a bunch too. We took out a verse and chorus, took away an extra part and added a new part. It was a song I think a lot of people in the band wanted to give up on, but I refused. I knew it was going to be great. We got Anthony from...
