Grammar:

• it's always been about me, myself and i

  ➔ 代词用法：反身代词和强调代词

  ➔ 使用 "myself" 是强调性的。它强调 "me"。类似于说 "it's always been about *only* me" (它总是关于 *只有* 我)。

• relationships were nothin but a waste of time

  ➔ 非正式语言：“Nothin'”

  ➔ "Nothin'" 是 "nothing" 的非正式缩写，在口语和歌词中很常见。

• i was happy stayin out of love that wouldn't last

  ➔ 形容词后的动名词

  ➔ "Happy" 是一个形容词，后面跟着动名词 "staying"。这种结构表达了与动作相关的状态。

• cause every time before its been like, maybe yes, maybe no

  ➔ 过去完成进行时 (隐含) 与 'been like'

  ➔ 虽然没有明确说明，“it's been like” 意味着直到现在的一种持续的状态或感觉。你可以推断出一个过去完成进行时，如 "It had been feeling like..."

• tell me is it only me, do you feel the same
