The song lyrically sees Mendes discuss a breakup. He starts off the song "over swelling, organ-like synths", singing: "Are we gonna make it? / Is this gonna hurt? / Oh, we can try to sedate it / But that never works, yeah". In the pre-chorus, Mendes expresses that he cannot live without his significant other after the split, which therefore has him assuring himself that it will all be alright soon: "I start to imagine a world where we don't collide / It's making me sick, but we'll heal and the sun will rise". In the chorus, he emotionally vents about his feelings from the breakup: "If you tell me you're leaving, I'll make it easy / It'll be okay / If we can't stop the bleeding, we don't have to fix it / We don't have to stay / I will love you either way (Ooh-ooh) / It'll be o, be okay (Ooh-ooh)". Further on, in the second verse, he sings about what went to waste after the relationship ended: "Oh, the future we dreamed of / Is fading to black, oh / And, oh, there's nothing more painful". Music videoThe music video depicts Mendes walking through the streets of Toronto at night as snow falls around him.
