Lyrics from Genius: [Verse 1: Joji] Lately, I've been slippin' away from you Can you tell me, does it hurt today? Yeah, there's no way, yeah (No way, no way, no way) To burn, there's no flames, yeah (There's no flames) Praying nine to five like a saint for you (Like a saint) Can you tell me how it turned this way? (How?) Yeah, things have changed, yeah (Yeah) Yeah, filled with rage, yeah (Filled with rage) [Chorus: Joji] So lost in these diamonds So lost in this paradise Don't speed on that highway We need you to shine bright When life gets too complicatеd Please stand with me aftеr dark I'll stay in the limelight Like a beautiful afterthought Like a beautiful afterthought [Verse 2: BENEE] Sometimes, you'd ask me for something different Hated when you did it, I wish that you didn't I would do things and you'd get annoyed, I Should've never done them, I wish I was different Why do we have to step away now? It's been a year, been a couple days now Since you called me sayin' you're worried Been hard for me dealin' with this space now No company, wishin' we could sit down 'Cause I'm sorry, but you don't want me [Chorus: Joji] So lost in these diamonds So lost in this paradise Don't speed on that highway We need you to shine bright When life gets too complicated Please stand with me after dark I'll stay in the limelight Like a beautiful afterthought Like a beautiful afterthought [Outro: BENEE & Joji] I don't wanna forget about you I don't wanna forget about you, oh I don't wanna forget about you I don't wanna think about it Think about it
just got out of a 2 year relationship, let's just say I'm gonna be blasting this album for a while :( Edit: Thanks for the love guys, im gettin better. I appreciate the motivation 💚
hey i actually like this when its slowed and reverbed, i keep listening to this song because the lyrics are meant for my best friend and i miss him so much its just that school fucks up our mental health so much, but yeah imma keep crying
I like that SOME of the videos from the album somewhat relate to the lyrics & the other videos, logically this is all just speculation, but, hear me out: - The green blob thingy from Afterthought, Normal People and Reanimator is alien life of some kind, the blob itself seems alive, it resembles an octopus in my opinion. - The photovoltaic power station alias solar farm from Tick Tock was settled in an alien planet (most certainly Mars, I will explain in a moment) either by Joji & his crew or by himself, the title of the song probably alludes to the fact that he's running out of time, mayhap he needs to escape the planet because a volcano erupted, mayhap he is simply losing his patience due to something that concerns him on an emotional level, etc. - The lava flows from Ew, 777 and Mr. Hollywood are from the Olympus Mons, the colossal shield volcano on the planet Mars, its devastating effect on the planet forces Joji's flight from the Red Planet. - The honeycomb from Upgrade is probably shown as the positive results of the terraforming done by Joji & his crew, the terraforming idea feels viable to me since rei brown says, “New planet, yeah, we planted everything we wanted”. I would get more in-depth with this stuff, but, I am currently tired as 🦆 [sic], so, I'll leave things like this for the time being 😁! P.s.: Nectar gets a solid 8 from me! PPS: “[...] No one will be here to save you, And no one will be here to let you know, This is your world”

[Verse 1: Joji]
Lately, I've been slippin' away from you
Can you tell me, does it hurt today?
Yeah, there's no way, yeah (No way, no way, no way)
To burn, there's no flames, yeah (There's no flames)
Praying nine to five like a saint for you (Like a saint)
Can you tell me how it turned this way? (How?)
Yeah, things have changed, yeah (Yeah)
Yeah, filled with rage, yeah (Filled with rage)
[Chorus: Joji]
So lost in these diamonds
So lost in this paradise
Don't speed on that highway
We need you to shine bright
When life gets too complicatеd
Please stand with me aftеr dark
I'll stay in the limelight
Like a beautiful afterthought
Like a beautiful afterthought
[Verse 2: BENEE]
Sometimes, you'd ask me for something different
Hated when you did it, I wish that you didn't
I would do things and you'd get annoyed, I
Should've never done them, I wish I was different
Why do we have to step away now?
It's been a year, been a couple days now
Since you called me sayin' you're worried
Been hard for me dealin' with this space now
No company, wishin' we could sit down
'Cause I'm sorry, but you don't want me
[Chorus: Joji]
So lost in these diamonds
So lost in this paradise
Don't speed on that highway
We need you to shine bright
When life gets too complicated
Please stand with me after dark
I'll stay in the limelight
Like a beautiful afterthought
Like a beautiful afterthought
[Outro: BENEE & Joji]
I don't wanna forget about you
I don't wanna forget about you, oh
I don't wanna forget about you
I don't wanna think about it
Think about it
Thanks bro
thanks :)
That one little detail in the song at 1:36 hits me so hard every time. I love when artists put the little things into their songs like that.
what exactly are you talking about?
@@itsrihsi the vocal
@@itsrihsi listen carefully
That tiny tune 🎹
I love that part omg, the whole vocals for this song were divine.
two of my favorite people in one song. when i saw this on my recommended i eternally screamed. this is a masterpiece.
I had the same reaction when Gus dapperton and benee dropped a song together 💀
two of ur favorite people and u just found out the song
@@StruckByStarsAND THAT SHI WAS A BANGER
Why are all of Joji’s songs so nostalgic ahhh 😌😌😫
Because there is a joji feeling in every song
@@sushiboy8562 your pfp?🙄🤯🤯
it reminds me of past experiences :((
just got out of a 2 year relationship, let's just say I'm gonna be blasting this album for a while :(
Edit: Thanks for the love guys, im gettin better. I appreciate the motivation 💚
Aye, honestly, take care of that emotional health, you got this. Shit is too depressing in this pandemic anyway.
happened to me last year, it gets better! it'll be an experience.
thomastehtrain happened to me too dude hope u feel better
It's okay man Joji's here making our 2020 better stay strong bruh
TonyIsntGoodAtAnything you too buddy, keep ya head up. 💚
Artists need to just start releasing slowed versions of their albums 😭
for real
This song is just on repeat slowed or not 😩
i don't wanna forget about you
This song is so painfully peaceful
This is song is such a vibe I can’t get tired of it!
Specially slowed!
Damn this version hit different when you’re ✨depressed✨
Doing hella work due tmmr, thank you for making it easier.
FINALLY PEOPLE THAT LOVE JOJI
I need this cuz im high rn and this makes me happy, thanks!
Sad boy times hit different ngl
wow, the outro in this version is extra depressing. hauntingly beautiful
this song makes me sad mad and then makes me cry
Benee slowed sounds like a new R&B rapper that is debuting on Jojis album lol
yeees 😂😂😂
I love her tho
Benee's part is ear heaven.
Okay but will you do a version that just reverb to make it sound like an empty arena? please i’ll do anything.
ill drive into the sun listening to this thx
I've listened to this the whole day, its so nice. I love the collab so much.
that first verse made me cry
like wow that’s incredible
If this was on spotify i would marry it
Top song to listen to when you’re driving in the grey muggy rain🖤
Damn literally driving in a hurricane rn
hey i actually like this when its slowed and reverbed, i keep listening to this song because the lyrics are meant for my best friend and i miss him so much its just that school fucks up our mental health so much, but yeah imma keep crying
I like that SOME of the videos from the album somewhat relate to the lyrics & the other videos, logically this is all just speculation, but, hear me out:
- The green blob thingy from Afterthought, Normal People and Reanimator is alien life of some kind, the blob itself seems alive, it resembles an octopus in my opinion.
- The photovoltaic power station alias solar farm from Tick Tock was settled in an alien planet (most certainly Mars, I will explain in a moment) either by Joji & his crew or by himself, the title of the song probably alludes to the fact that he's running out of time, mayhap he needs to escape the planet because a volcano erupted, mayhap he is simply losing his patience due to something that concerns him on an emotional level, etc.
- The lava flows from Ew, 777 and Mr. Hollywood are from the Olympus Mons, the colossal shield volcano on the planet Mars, its devastating effect on the planet forces Joji's flight from the Red Planet.
- The honeycomb from Upgrade is probably shown as the positive results of the terraforming done by Joji & his crew, the terraforming idea feels viable to me since rei brown says, “New planet, yeah, we planted everything we wanted”.
I would get more in-depth with this stuff, but, I am currently tired as 🦆 [sic], so, I'll leave things like this for the time being 😁!
P.s.: Nectar gets a solid 8 from me!
PPS: “[...] No one will be here to save you,
And no one will be here to let you know,
This is your world”
this is perfect
omggg and benee AND joji in one song?!?
Sometimes when I’m passing through hard times I like to listen to this version of the song I mean it’s really relaxing for me
I liked the part when he looked like one degree to the left
he's dancing lol
Lol love both of these comments @@GG_AKA_GAVIN
THIS SLAPS
damn rin is really going through it://
Ikrrrr;(
this song is amazing sloweddd woah
wayy too gooddd 😩
The outro gets me right in the feels...😞
thank you slerb. 🙏
I just got the chills omg
This song is a bop...thanks:3

The fact that this song makes me ugly cry really says a lot about how Joji produces songs...
Just broke up from a 5 year relationship, Imma listen to this song every 3 am and hope it will save me
Benee actually sounds great slowed down haha
Thank you for this❤️
His voice sound so cool in this
feel like this would be a good song to play as the world ends :(( "what does love mean, when the end is rolling in"
4:00 am this hits different
thank you so much :(
This song by George is so underrated
THIS IS A VIBE DOE
The Anime is called Blue exorcist if anyone is wondering.
The ending holy shit
Nectar nectar nectar
All time
Save my feelings
It hits so much more different slowed down. I'm sending this shit to my BFF he must hear it
This song makes me feel in love with someone I’m not even with. Wow.

yt is backkk
LYRICS 🥀🖤🥀
Lately, I've been slippin' away from you
Can you tell me, does it hurt today?
Yeah, there's no way, yeah (No way, no way, no way)
To burn, there's no flames, yeah (There's no flames)
Praying nine to five like a saint for you (Like a saint)
Can you tell me how it turned this way? (How?)
Yeah, things have changed, yeah (Yeah)
Yeah, filled with rage, yeah (Filled with rage)
So lost in these diamonds
So lost in this paradise
Don't speed on that highway
We need you to shine bright
When life gets too complicated
Please stand with me after dark
I'll stay in the limelight
Like a beautiful afterthought
Like a beautiful afterthought
Sometimes, you'd ask me for something different
Hated when you did it, I wish that you didn't
I would do things and you'd get annoyed, I
Should've never done them, I wish I was different
Why do we have to step away now?
It's been a year, been a couple days now
Since you called me sayin' you're worried
Been hard for me dealin' with this space now
No company, wishin' we could sit down
'Cause I'm sorry, but you don't want me
So lost in these diamonds
So lost in this paradise
Don't speed on that highway
We need you to shine bright
When life gets too complicated
Please stand with me after dark
I'll stay in the limelight
Like a beautiful afterthought
Like a beautiful afterthought
I don't wanna forget about you
I don't wanna forget about you, oh
I don't wanna forget about you
I don't wanna think about it
Think about it
Benee in this verse sounds like a cute guy ❤️
i love to listen to this like it's a postcoital cigarette for me
Benee sounds like a dude slowed down lol.
A girl with a pitched voice in a slowed + reverb video = dude's voice in real life
love this analogy
best song in the album other than ew
Ew 😭🥺 my favorite
Can you tell me? Does it hurt today?
Saved 2021
