What we might imagine death feels like 
when a loved one separates from life, 
as we imagine life without them.

Additional vocals by Mira Cole

It's not the climb, it's the toll. 
It's not the fallen, it's the brave. 
It's not the sigh, but the crave.

You swore a vow, and now you break it. 
Separated. 

It's not what clouds, but what fades. 
It's not the spite, it's the hate. 
It's not our doom, it's our fate. 
It's not the catch, it's the bait. 

You swore a vow, and now you break it.
I'm down with love, but I now hate it. 
Separated.

It's the water, not the wave. 
It's the light, not the shade. 
It's the load, not the weight. 
It's moments, not the days. 

You swore a vow, and now you break it. 
I'm down with love, but I now hate it. 
Separated.
