What it is
"Don't Miss It" is a piano ballad by James Blake, released as a single by Polydor in 2018 and later included on his fourth album, Assume Form. Built on piano and Blake's processed vocals, it is about the temptation to withdraw and disappear from your own life. Responding to critics who called it "sad boy" music, Blake said that label discourages men from talking openly about their feelings.

I felt a funeral in my brain, And mourners, to and fro, Kept treading, treading, till it seemed That sense was breaking through.Emily Dickinson, Poems by Emily Dickinson, Three Series
