Lyrics:
You leapt from crumbling bridges watching cityscapes turn to dust
Filming helicopters crashing in the ocean from way above

Got the music in you baby,
Tell me why
Got the music in you baby,
Tell me why
You’ve been locked in here forever and you just can’t say goodbye

Kisses on the foreheads of the lovers wrapped in your arms
You’ve been hiding them in hollowed out pianos left in the dark…

Your lips,
My lips,
Apocalypse

Go and sneak us through the rivers,
Flood is rising up on your knees
Oh please…
Come out and haunt me
I know you want me
Come out and haunt me

Sharing all your secrets with each other since you were kids
Sleeping soundly with the locket that she gave you clutched in your fist…

When you’re all alone
I will reach for you
When you’re feeling low
I will be there too

"when you're all alone i will reach for you, when you're feeling lost i'll be there too"

I need to hear this from someone so badly

I used to jam to this when I walked through the crowded streets of Seoul, South Korea. I was surrounded by humans but still in my own little world with my headphones on.

This isn't a song.
This is a feeling.

I’ve tried attempting to overdose a month ago, I have a drug addiction and I’m living a very hard life right now, I want to give myself 3 years to come back to this song and read my comment. I hope that in 3 years (when I’m 22) I’ll be surprised by friends with drinks. I hope life will get better. See you in 3 years.

Update: 10/20/2021, it’s been one year since I commented this, though I have been dealing with so much through the year I always came back to this song and read the comment responses. You guys are the best, I never thought so many people would care about me, even strangers around the world. I no longer do drugs, I have gained so many friends over the year. I still keep coming back here for motivational support. Thank you for helping me guys. Much love! See y’all in 2 years! I’ll be here :)

Update: 10/24/2022, hello everyone, I’m still here :) I come back to this song almost every other day and read all the nice responses given to me. Thank you so much, I’m doing so much better today. I work at a bank, I’m almost done with college, I’ve met so many people and gained so many friends. I wish that I could go back in time and give myself a hug, in a strange way, coming back here to read responses to my comment feels like I’m being hugged from strangers around the world. Thank you for waiting for me. See you next year. :)

Final update: 03/25/2024 hey everyone! Looks like we finally made it to 3 years, sorry for the late update. I’m 23 years old now and I started working as a surveyor at SpaceX. Soon to be a civil engineer, trust me when I tell y’all I’ve been extremely busy working and finishing college… I know I said that I was finishing college on the the previous year but I dropped business school to pursue something I had a little more interest in! This year had a rough start. I had a dog who was my best friend who sadly passed away early of September last year and that’s why I didn’t update around October like I had planned, I needed some time to heal and I didn’t want to keep filling myself with sadness. Having him around reminded me I didn’t really need friends, which to update I wasn’t surprised by like I had said at the beginning… also, I don’t even drink lol. I only have like 3 friends today, but that’s okay! 3 friends is enough for me. Thank you all so much who waited for me. Thank you all so much for the love and virtual hugs. I couldn’t have made it this far if I hadn’t searched for this song and read all my responses on my bad days. Sending all of you back the biggest hug. I completed my journey to sober up and fight depressing and thoughts of suicide, it’s very much possible! If you ever feel alone or sad or feel like nobody loves you. Trust me, there is someone out there that does. I do, even if I don’t know who you are I found out that from thousands of strangers around the world could care and love and support me here consider it the same. I love you all so much. ❤

You leapt from crumbling bridges
Watching cityscapes turn to dust
Filming helicopters crashing
In the ocean from way above
Got the music in you, baby
Tell me why
Got the music in you, baby
Tell me why
You've been locked in here forever
And you just can't say goodbye
Kisses on the foreheads of the lovers
Wrapped in your arms
You've been hiding them in hollowed out pianos
Left in the dark
Got the music in you, baby
Tell me why
Got the music in you, baby
Tell me why
You've been locked in here forever
And you just can't say goodbye
Your lips, my lips
Apocalypse
Your lips, my lips
Apocalypse
Go and sneak us through the rivers
Flood is rising up on your knees
Oh, please
Come out and haunt me
I know you want me
Come out and haunt me
Sharing all your secrets with each other
Since you were kids
Sleeping soundly with the locket that she gave you
Clutched in your fist
Got the music in you, baby
Tell me why
Got the music in you, baby
Tell me why
You've been locked in here forever
And you just can't say goodbye
You've been locked in here forever
And you just can't say goodbye
Ooh, oh
When you're all alone
I'll reach for you
When you're feelin' low
I'll be there too

Going through old memories and seeing what character development you gave gone through, that made you like this. It's not sad, it's peaceful. Not caring about anything or anyone now. You are happy in your own world. Free from all guilt and Shame. It's good

The sexual tension between this song and my depression ;)

I can't believe "your lips my lips apocalypse" is the part that everyone knows when "you've been locked in here forever and you just can't say goodbye" EXISTS

Ever experienced this? It’s 3 am, windows are open, everyone is sleeping except you? This is exactly how this song feels like and it’s a beautiful feeling
