Lyrics
Terrified
Alone inside
The dead confide in no one else but me
They sing
Hear we are
I gave it all
To nothing as they steal the air I breathe
It seems
Deeper and deeper it goes
I cannot help myself when I’ve lost control
I know this isn’t worth my time
But I can’t find
The places I used to know
Deeper and deeper it goes
Why am I sinking
Why am I stopping
Everything that’s gonna save me
Everything that’s gonna save me
Knowing I’m alone inside
The dead confide and maybe I’m at peace
They sing
You were never meant to sleep
So won’t stay awake right here with me
Don’t breathe
Deeper and deeper it goes
I cannot help myself when I’ve lost control
I know this isn’t worth my time
But I can’t find
The places I used to know
Deeper and deeper it goes
Why am I sinking
Why am I stopping
Everything that’s gonna save me
Everything that’s gonna save me
Gonna save me
Won’t be afraid
Of the fall from a failure
The weight of it all
It pulls me under
Deeper and deeper it goes
Deeper and deeper it goes
Why am I sinking
Why am I stopping
Everything that’s gonna save me
Everything that’s gonna save me
Everything that’s gonna save me
Everything that’s gonna save me
Deeper and deeper it goes

#keatonforever how someone I’ve never met still touches my soul every time I hear your voice and breaks my heart when thinking of your passing is bizarre. I hope you’re resting easy Keets. Sending so much love to the TCTT fam 🫶🏻

[@johndaniel7655]

His lyrics mean the world to me. They have helped me through so many difficult times I can’t even express. Miss you bro.

[@belwatt2827]

I found you guys back in 2015 after the Nerve Endings video came up in my recommended, and I've been a fan ever since then and while I'm so sad this will be the final album, there's so many songs from the catalogue I keep close and still listen to on a daily basis, we will always have those songs and will remember Keaton. Thank you. RIP ❤

[@1295candi]

Keaton is so proud of yall! This is so beautiful!!! His voice was one of a kind. His lyrics was one of a kind He was a one of a kind.

Thank you for helping me survive. 29 now, idk where the time goes, but thank you all for everything ❤️ RIP Keaton and Kyle, I hope you are making beautiful music up there .

[@zeke4730]

So sad that I only discovered this band just a week before his passing, would have loved to see them live, the emotion he put into vocals is unmatched, it’s not the skill or technically it’s the raw emotion in every line

[@bottomofastairwell]

same. sadly, this will be one of those bands i'll never get to see properly in their glory.

[@ElyciusM]

I'm so excited for the ep. Keaton will always be my favorite vocalist of all time. RIP to an absolute legend

[@slickraptor0246]

Rip Keaton miss you 🖤

This is incredible. I miss these guys so much. RIP, Keaton.

[@francescaconley]

NOOOO IM GONNA CRY STOP RIP KEATON 😭😭

[@Lord8th_]

News songs always make me forget for just a second that he’s not here with us anymore. I owe tctt my life, they saved me when I didn’t know I could be saved. I don’t think the hurt will ever go away, but I’m so happy his and the bands legacy will live forever #ripkeaton

[@KikeMendoza66Brrrr]

Like From Panamá❤🇵🇦

[@Eric-uh6hx]

I cried when I found out. I'm crying listening to this. I never even met the guy, but I have been a fan since the beginning. This is so very sad. This whole time, he was telling us through his songs.

[@sapfospyridakos7014]

What was he telling us?

[@MrSkelFire]

One of the most influential voices, right there beside Chester. :)

[@GabrielCassett]

This song is an absolute masterpiece and melancholy for me. Rip Keaton.

Listening to a ghost and it's still amazing. You will always be missed Keaton

[@rounax666]

Thank you, Keaton🖤

[@Nephilvan]

Back when "Haven't Been Myself" released I was at my darkest and most hopeless, and it was one of the few things that soothed me or could match how I was feeling. It was a comfort, and a way to let out or try to work through what was inside. The music still means so much to me and these powerful vocals and beautifully played instruments still ignite something in my soul 🫶 Nothing but love to you guys. Thank you so much!

[@1Systems]

im out of words.. this is perfect, timeless, END OF ONE OF MY FAV. BAND. thank you guys for making it happen

[@fizzpop2000]

[@maximantonov7339]

Thank you for doing this 🖤🖤

[@therealSamG]

We miss you, Keaton. Thanks for the new song...

[@sishtx_anxiety]

Fuck man. I can't. This hurts so much hearing this. I had no idea that he died until I went to go see Bad Omens. I remember me and him having a conversation on how I found them, and he had this big smile, was so fucking down to earth. I really wanted to see him and talk to him again... this hurts man. This hurts bad.

[@morose8082]

Was listening to Sympathy when Joel from Being As An Ocean told me about his passing 2 years ago. Keaton's voice is probably my favorite when it comes to how powerful it is and how broken

[@limi.]

Keaton forever 🖤 thanks to everyone working bts for this to be out... 🙌🏻

[@evantelika]

🖤🖤🖤 forever in our hearts 🖤🖤🖤

[@ralphozer2037]
