Growing Apart by Ay Wing, BEACHPEOPLE, Torky Tork
With "Growing Apart," Ay Wing, Beachpeople, and Torky Tork deliver a sensitive snapshot of drifting apart — between two people, but also between self-image and inner experience, between closeness and the constant distraction of an overwhelming outside world. The track floats on a stripped-down, old-school inspired hip-hop beat, dusty and analog in feel — laid back, yet full of depth.
Ay Wing’s voice carries the opening lines like an internal monologue — warm, soulful, and vulnerable all at once. She lays the emotional foundation before Beachpeople steps in, introducing another dimension with his glassy falsetto: a voice suspended between airy lightness and fragile intimacy — as if it could break at any moment, and that’s precisely where its strength lies. It’s not a voice that performs — it reveals.
Torky Tork’s production holds back intentionally — it makes space. Space for honesty, for silence between the lines, for the echo of unanswered questions.
"Growing Apart" is not your typical breakup ballad. It’s a track about internal distances. About the feeling of becoming a stranger to yourself while scrolling through perfectly curated lives. About wrestling with your own intuition in a world that is loud, dazzling — and rarely real.
A song like a gentle reminder that fragility isn’t a flaw — it’s a sign that we still feel.
The track was born during a magical late-night jam session at the Limusic Camp in Toulouse — a creative convergence between Ay Wing, Beachpeople, Torky Tork, Joel Miles, Max Hermes, and Jakob Zimmer-Harwood.

Lyrics
Lyrics:
I feel it in my stomach pit
Ooh I’m getting motion sick
When the weight comes off my back
There’s a tension in my neck
We’re growing apart
Should be loving not fighting
Kissing not hiding
We’re growing apart
Should be loving not fighting
Kissing not hiding
We’re growing apart
I’m growing apart
I never knew
Got something to do
With me and you
Don’t follow your heart
There is a truth
Following hearts
Will make you choose
From dreams you never had before
Lies you could have lived without
Sudden knockings on your door
And what we have to talk about
We’re growing apart
Should be loving not fighting
Kissing not hiding
We’re growing apart
Should be loving not fighting
Kissing not hiding
Ah
