NøtInVain
[Verse 1: Nøt
In
Vain]
What is there to say?
I did not come here to play
We ended on a Saturday
That weekend made me realize
That it's so hard to be alone again
But I don't think I'll soon forget
What I said on that night we met
I just wanna know how
I slipped your memory so easily
Went from being head over heels
To being decapitated
Head's in with the meals
I couldn't remember to fan the flame
I couldn't remember to forget your name
I let that little spark and ember
Ignite my whole life
And I was obsessed until the day
We said goodbye
I really think it was just burning too hot, too bright
Flying close to the sun like Icarus
My wing's melted and I fell and got lost in the wilderness
Turned you into Freddy Kreuger
Because I can only see you in my dreams
Felt like there was a whole shot
In any possibility of a future

[Hook: Linnéa Norlén]
I had all and then most of you
Some and now none of you
Take me back to the night we met
I don't know what I'm supposed to do
Haunted by the ghost of you
Oh, take me back to the night we met

[Verse 2: Nøt
In
Vain]
I go to get some therapy
The doctor swings the pendulum
I try to forget my enemies
But end up more damagin' than Marilyn
I just wanna find my destiny
I write down their names and they go
Like Death Note
I don't wanna be the next Eminem
I don't wanna go and throw around 25 Benjamin's
I popped a button, I popped a tab
Stopped being an addict
And taking all this medicine, stab
In the dark see myself and I grab
Told myself that I need to be my own artist
Stay still and be genuine
It's deep in your bones, yo
It's so deep inside your skeleton

[Hook: Linnéa Norlén]
I had all and then most of you
Some and now none of you
Take me back to the night we met
I don't know what I'm supposed to do
Haunted by the ghost of you
Oh, take me back to the night we met

[Verse 3: Nøt
In
Vain]
I really thought it would last forever
Never thought I would surrender
Didn't think I'd survive the bender
I would give you attention
And you would be the fucking center
I thought saying goodbye would be a piece of cake
But I guess it's true what they say
You don't really know what you have until it's gone
And the recovery process took so fucking long
Tortured me for months
Wrote about it in every single song
But I'm so happy that you're happy, even if it's hard
Took you a whole goddamn month to recover
Introduced you to my brother and my mother
Seemed like just yesterday, you would blast that Ella Mai
And I would call into work
And tell that them I'm sick and I couldn't come in
Just to go and pick you up
I remember the Coldstone
Get so upset if we had to postpone
And the day we went to get Remi
I was down to my last penny
Every second the first month
Felt like imminent death
I'm by myself again
But now you have S-

[Hook: Linnéa Norlén]
I had all and then most of you
Some and now none of you
Take me back to the night we met
I don't know what I'm supposed to do
Haunted by the ghost of you
Oh, take me back to the night we met

[Outro: Nøt
In
Vain]
Take me back
