The follow-up to Alesso's collaboration with Calvin Harris "Under Control," this single finds the Swedish DJ teaming up with his fellow countrywoman Tove-Lo. "The song gives me the feeling that something might be over, but it's okay, we're still here together after it," Alesso said. "This might be the last time we'll be in that moment, but we can create new ones afterwards."
Tove Lo's lyrics were inspired by an episode of the TV series Heroes that she'd randomly watched. "I was thinking of being a kid and wishing I had these powers when I would pretend," the Swedish singer told Artist Direct. "There's nothing extraordinary about me in that way, but you always wish you could have that. Something will set me off, and I'll start writing. Then, I'll circle back to my own experience."
Speaking to Billboard magazine about the song's inspirational message, Alesso said: "I'm a pretty emotional person. Sometimes that's what's missing in the electronic landscape: the real emotions. I have a euphoric sound, so when you combine that with an emotional message, it connects with people."
