You brought out the worst version of me
The lowest I've ever fallen was because of you
I didn't deserve all this
Not even as a lesson, to be honest
But if they ask, I say yes
That I learned, it made me stronger
To look good to people
But it was useless to be with you
I didn't need hate
I only asked you for love
I don't know what I am anymore, because I cry
And men don't cry, no
Chorus 1
Again she calls me
She's worse than fame
According to her, she wanted to come back
But I had to beg her
Stay, but very far away
That barely the reflection of my mirror feels love
Stay, but very far away
Not even in my past I want to see you, please
Verse 2
Keep that distance
And erase my name from your body and soul
Just like I did
Like a gentleman
And I keep your secrets
And I'll be discreet if you don't step on my pain
Chorus 2
Again she calls me
She's worse than fame
According to her, she wanted to come back
But I had to beg her
Stay, but very far away
That barely the reflection of my mirror feels love
Stay, but very far away
Not even in my past I want to see you, please
Keep that distance
And erase my name from your body and soul
Just like I did
Like a gentleman
And I keep your secrets
And I'll be discreet if you don't step on my pain
Without stepping on the pain
