作曲 : Leroy Clampitt/Madison Beer/Lucy Healey

They say, "you'll get used to it"

But it never goes away

If I, I get through this (Mm)

I'll never be the same

...

It's hard to explain

Like colors and pain

Oh, everything changes

Look what I became

...

I only exist in the moments you're talking to me

If we can't be together, then I'll just go back to sleep

Wish I was something to you, baby, you're everything to me (Mm-mm)

I tried to save us, but there's only so much I can do (So much)

And I'm not perfect, but I've never stopped loving you

(So) How am I nothing to you, while you're still everything to me? (Mm)

...

Who knows where you are tonight

I'm sleeping here alone

If she's in your arms tonight

I'll never need to know

...

It's hard to explain

Like colors and pain

Oh, everything changes

Look what you have made

...

I only exist in the moments you're talking to me

If we can't be together, then I'll just go back to sleep

Wish I was something to you, baby, you're everything to me (Mm)

I tried to save us, but there's only so much I can do (So much)

And I'm not perfect, but I've never stopped loving you

(So) How am I nothing to you, while you're still everything to me? (Mm)

...

How am I nothing to you? (To me)

How am I nothing to you? (To me)

How am I nothing to you? (To me)

To me

...

I tried to save us, but there's only so much I can do

And I'm not perfect, but I've never stopped loving you

How am I nothing to you, while you're still everything to me?

Key Grammar Structures

• They say, "you'll get used to it"

  ➔ Reported Speech (Indirect Speech)

  ➔ This uses the structure 'say + that + clause' to report what someone else said. The tense shifts back one step (will -> would). The quotation marks indicate the original statement.

• If I, I get through this (Mm)

  ➔ Conditional Sentence (Type 1) with ellipsis and repetition for emphasis

  ➔ This is a first conditional sentence ('If I get through this, I will...'). The 'I' is repeated for dramatic effect and to emphasize the speaker's uncertainty. The 'will' is implied (ellipsed).

• Wish I was something to you

  ➔ Subjunctive Mood (expressing a wish)

  ➔ The use of 'was' instead of 'were' after 'wish' indicates the subjunctive mood, expressing a desire for something that is not true or unlikely to be true. It expresses a regret or longing.

• How am I nothing to you, while you're still everything to me?

  ➔ Rhetorical Question & Contrastive Clause (using 'while')

  ➔ This is a rhetorical question – the speaker doesn't expect an answer. 'While' introduces a contrasting idea, highlighting the imbalance in the relationship. The structure emphasizes the speaker's pain.
