"Good Things Fall Apart" is a song by American EDM producer Illenium and American singer-songwriter Jon Bellion. It was released on May 13, 2019, on Astralwerks, alongside its lyric video. It serves as the fourth single from Illenium's third studio album Ascend. It became Illenium's first top ten hit on the US Dance/Electronic Songs chart, peaking at number 4.
The song was first teased on April 26, 2019, by Illenium and Jon Bellion via their Twitter accounts. Bellion tweeted that he missed "sadboy anthems of the Yellowcard/Dashboard Confessional/Taking Back Sunday era". Illenium then somewhat confirmed a collab by responding to Bellion's tweet, writing "Sadboi anthem incoming".[1]
The song's release was accompanied by the lyric video, followed by a music video on June 10, 2019. Directed by Jeremi Durand, the video follows two astronauts attempting to flee the planet as it is destroyed; scenes of Illenium and Bellion performing the song in military wardrobe are intercut throughout the video.[2]
The song is available as DLC for Rock Band 4.
