What a shame, that your name doesn't hurt me
now.
What a shame, that the pain doesn't hurt me
either.
Where will you be
who will you hate,
you were dying of love
to not be able to love.
Who will love you
I wonder who you will be
the one I knew,
has never existed.

now.
What a shame, that the pain doesn't hurt me

What will you think
who will you tell
that with me you could
forgive yourself and cry.
When will you come
to look for the rest,
the one who loved you yesterday
can forget you today.
