Don′t like to go there often, but every once in a while

I stroll down memory lane to remember your smile

And in a dark corner of my fragile mindI see your eyes soft and kind staring back

Now you're just a photo, someone that I don′t know

A memory on my phone from many years ago

You're just an outline, a hazy recollection

Here in my cerebellum, you're a distant perfection

The real you, couldn′t be loyal

The real you, couldn′t be true

The real you had to go spoil all that we had

I don't like the real you

Oh, I don′t like the real you (hmm)

Oh, but maybe this was always you

I said some things that I meant

But the way you heard, I'll always regret

Maybe it′s karma, I'll admit

But you betrayed me in a way worse than words

You stuck the knife in

Now you′re just a photo, someone that I don't know

A memory on my phone, from many years ago

You're just an outline, a hazy recollection

Here in my cerebellum, you′re a distant perfection

The real you, couldn′t be loyal

The real you, couldn't be true

The real you had to go spoil all that we had

Oh, I don′t like the real you (hmm)

Oh, but maybe this was always you

I hope you know if you ever ask

I'd forgive you, but you don′t feel bad

I'll be seeing you, only in the past

I′ll be seeing you in a flashback

In a flashback

The real you couldn't be loyal

The real you couldn't be true

The real you had to go spoil all that we had

I don′t like the real you

Oh, I don′t like the real you (hmm)

Oh, but maybe this was always you (always you)
