Because I knew I shouldn’t look back
Because I knew I would hold onto you if you stood there
I told you to leave first
Then I turned around, leaving you alone

Because I’ll run into your arms if we see each other again
Because I know I’ll go out if I pick up your phone call
I’ll be home, I don’t want to go anywhere
My body is tied down with our break up

I’ll have to hurt as much as my heart has stopped
I’ll have to be in pain until my heart shatters
You know me, you know me better than I do
If my body is far away, my heart will get far away too

Please do that for me
Erase me like I’m doing
As if a girl like me never existed in the first place

Because it feels like we’ll see each other at least once
Because I know I’ll find you without even knowing
I’ll be home, I won’t even look at the clock
With my hands covering my eyes

I’ll have to hurt as much as my heart has stopped
I’ll have to be in pain until my heart shatters
You know me, you know me better than I do
If my body is far away, my heart will get far away too

Please do that for me
Erase me like I’m doing
As if a girl like me never existed in the first place

Don’t go, don’t go, don’t go
Come back, come back, come back
Words that I shouted to myself

Even if I hear it, I’ll pretend I didn’t hear
Even if you come hiding in my heart, I’ll ignore it
I need to forget your scent, I need to erase your touch
That’s how I can live, even if you’re not here

Please do that for me
Erase me like I’m doing
Smile and think of our love as something that has passed
