In this evocative track, Olly Murs explores the emotional tumult following a profound personal loss, likely a breakup. The lyrics depict the protagonist's struggle with incessant thoughts and feelings of abandonment, as signified by the heart being "ripped...out of my soul." The recurring motif of being awake for "twenty-four hours" suggests an overwhelming obsession and inability to escape from the mental replay of past events. This state of hyper-awareness is paired with a paradoxical sense of liberation ("it feels so good"), indicating a complex emotional landscape where pain coexists with a newfound sense of freedom. The reference to a "masquerade" and hearing "angels calling" further imbues the song with elements of introspection and transformation, highlighting the internal conflict between facing reality and clinging to what was once familiar.
