"Good Things Fall Apart" teamed American EDM producer Illenium with singer-songwriter Jon Bellion, arriving on Astralwerks on May 13, 2019, with a lyric video as the fourth single from Illenium's third album, Ascend. The tease gave the game away: in April, Bellion tweeted that he missed the sad-boy anthems of the Yellowcard, Dashboard Confessional and Taking Back Sunday days, and Illenium shot back that one was on its way.

Illenium produced it with Jason Evigan, who also plays guitar; Bellion sings, JHart adds backing vocals, and both share the writing credit with Evigan, Sarah Hudson and Illenium. It climbed to number 4 on the US Dance/Electronic Songs chart, his first trip into that chart's top 10. Jeremi Durand's video followed in June, with two astronauts racing to escape a dying planet, and the song is also downloadable content for Rock Band 4.
