Feelings fade when people change 00:11
I stayed the same 00:13
You played your games 00:15
And now we're left with nothing (ooh, ooh, ooh) 00:16
I'm not okay, but it's okay 00:22
Don't walk away 00:24
I'll take the blame 00:26
Before we're left with nothing (ooh, ooh, ooh) 00:27
Don't know if I'll be fine without you 00:32
I hope I'll be alright without you 00:37
I'm tired of fake people, fake smiles, fake hugs 00:42
Fake hope, fake friends, fake love 00:45
'Cause fake friends are a real waste of time 00:48
And fake love is real waste of life 00:51
So don't you go texting me, telling me 00:53
Wish you were next to me 00:55
Rest in peace 00:57
Everything's ending eventually 00:59
Best friends can become your enemies (ooh, ooh, ooh) 01:00

You know how I make you feel, right? 01:07
You know I'd be lost without you 01:10
I never felt something so real, right? 01:12
Remember when we ran through all the fountains 01:15
In downtown that one night? 01:18
Now I'm runnin' away 01:21
From the one that I thought was the one, right, 'cause 01:23
Feelings fade when people change 01:26
I stayed the same 01:29
You played your games 01:30
And now we're left with nothing (ooh, ooh, ooh) 01:31
I'm not okay, but it's okay 01:37
Don't walk away 01:40
I'll take the blame 01:41
Before we're left with nothing (ooh, ooh, ooh) 01:42
Don't know if I'll be fine without you 01:47
I hope I'll be alright without you 01:52
I'm tired of secrets, lies, excuses 01:57
Holding back, the truth is- 02:01
I act like I don't care, but I wish you did 02:04
You used to make me smile, now you make me sick 02:07
I wish I didn't waste my time 02:09
I wish you didn't change my mind 02:14
Do we have to talk about it? 02:20

[English]

Feelings fade when people change
I stayed the same
You played your games
And now we're left with nothing (ooh, ooh, ooh)
I'm not okay, but it's okay
Don't walk away
I'll take the blame
Before we're left with nothing (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Don't know if I'll be fine without you
I hope I'll be alright without you
I'm tired of fake people, fake smiles, fake hugs
Fake hope, fake friends, fake love
'Cause fake friends are a real waste of time
And fake love is real waste of life
So don't you go texting me, telling me
Wish you were next to me
Rest in peace
Everything's ending eventually
Best friends can become your enemies (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Do we have to talk about it?
You know how I make you feel, right?
You know I'd be lost without you
I never felt something so real, right?
Remember when we ran through all the fountains
In downtown that one night?
Now I'm runnin' away
From the one that I thought was the one, right, 'cause
Feelings fade when people change
I stayed the same
You played your games
And now we're left with nothing (ooh, ooh, ooh)
I'm not okay, but it's okay
Don't walk away
I'll take the blame
Before we're left with nothing (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Don't know if I'll be fine without you
I hope I'll be alright without you
I'm tired of secrets, lies, excuses
Holding back, the truth is-
I act like I don't care, but I wish you did
You used to make me smile, now you make me sick
I wish I didn't waste my time
I wish you didn't change my mind
Do we have to talk about it?
You know how I make you feel, right?
You know I'd be lost without you
I never felt somethin' so real, right?
Remember when we ran through all the lights
In downtown that one night?
Now you runnin' away
From the one that I thought was the one, right, 'cause
Feelings fade when people change
I stayed the same
You played your games
And now we're left with nothing (ooh, ooh, ooh)
I'm not okay, but it's okay
Don't walk away
I'll take the blame
Before we're left with nothing (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Don't know if I'll be fine without you
I hope I'll be alright without you
(Ahh man)
I hope our feelings don't fade
I know we know we need space
I'm sorry, I know it's late
But I've got something to say
It's gonna be okay, okay tonight
It's gonna be okay, okay
It's gonna be okay, okay tonight
'Cause tomorrow's just a dream away
It's gonna be okay, okay tonight
It's gonna be okay, okay
It's gonna be okay, okay tonight
'Cause tomorrow's just a dream away, yeah
