A haunting exploration of love and longing, this track delves deep into the relentless nature of emotional scars and unresolved relationships. The recurring motif of night and dreams illustrates a torment that persists even in sleep, symbolizing the inescapable grip of past love. Alex Isley’s vocals convey an enduring connection that, despite the passage of time, remains almost tangible yet shrouded in fear and regret. Bas’s verse adds layers of nostalgia and introspection, recounting memories of happier times and the persistent desire to reignite an old flame. The collaboration between the artists paints a vivid picture of emotional conflict, where the comfort of familiar pain competes with the dread of reliving it. Ultimately, the song speaks to the cyclical nature of love and heartache, as feelings linger "on and on," never fully allowing for closure.
On & On
Lyrics
Night hits different
Wishin' I can sleep again
It started off innocent
It's time when all the dreams
Just got worse, you see
So what does it mean?
That you're still here, here, here (on and on, on and on)
Almost there, there, there (on and on, on and on)
So close, fear, fear, fear (on and on, on and on)
Best nightmare, -mare, -mare, -mare (on and on, on and on)
Cold sweat covers all my thoughts
I wanna but I'd rather not
Play a song, repeat it, figured all these'd stop
It's crazy to believe
You lead me to defeat
I already gave the best of me
Yet you're still here, here, here (on and on, on and on)
Almost there, there, there (on and on, on and on)
So close, fear, fear, fear (on and on, on and on)
Best nightmare, -mare, -mare, -mare (on and on, on and on)
The contents of my dreams ain't even fit to share
This world is lonely as it seems, at least I been prepared
I left no feelings spared, still, I care for you
There for you in this world
Wears on you, where was I?
By your side like a pair, two of a kind
Back when we were aligned
Back when you was still mine
Back until the back and forth, I'm backin' out the garage
I could double back, my rearview lookin' like a mirage
Happier days, the table breakin' at the Mirage
Vegas, not with the guys, just you and I, do or die
Can you blow the die for me, wanna try my luck again?
'Fore we kick the bucket, fuck it, can we fall in love again?
I know all these other men on your neck, and that's cool
I know all these other chicks want a check, and that's true
I know all you ever wanted was depth
A conversation that meant somethin', fuck all of the flexin'
That you're still here, here, here
Almost there, there, there
So close, fear, fear, fear
Best nightmare, -mare, -mare, -mare
