Speaking to Loudwire, Bellamy said "For me, just writing a song on the piano and doing my film mixing, which I love, I love film music, as you know, and just trying to think of a kind of lyrical or a feeling that kind of captures what I'm feeling during this time, which is kind of reconnecting with the simplest things in life and trying to find a kind of optimism and hope for what the future could be".

Lyrics
Your eyes see clearer Your hands can heal her Your lips taste her beauty
Don't you waste it Don't you waste it
Your body is stronger Your mind is a wonder Your heart is so full of love
Don't you waste it Don't you waste it
Look to tomorrow The end of our sorrows Our world could be so full of joy
Don't you waste it Don't you waste it
