“Drifting Apart” opens with a lonely piano chord that sets the tone right away: Something’s off, and it’s not getting fixed any time soon.

Over the next three minutes, Tomas Hanna’s vocals walk us through that rough spot when two people start sliding away from each other even though one of them won’t let go. He starts with the line, “Sometimes I feel we’re drifting apart…  can’t help to feel some type of way about it.” It sounds exactly like the late-night thoughts that keep you staring at the ceiling. A few lines later, he’s stuck refreshing his phone: “Tonight, I don’t know if you’ll respond … but I can’t get enough of you.” It’s the same worry spiraling in different words. When the chorus drops, “I know we’re drifting apart,” it feels like that one sentence you keep replaying in your head, that one desire that makes you beg, “You never wanna come hear me… just give me a shot to come with you.”

It’s raw enough that the music steps back so the words can land. As the song closes, it leaves us with one last question, “Can we stop drifting apart?” Just simple and honest, no fancy metaphors, just real life pain about losing someone. With relatable lyrics to most people, clean production, and a message that sticks, I give it an easy 9.2/10.
