about

Inspired by the movie 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind', this song will simultaneously bring back memories of being ghosted or seemingly erased from an ex's life and have you cheerfully tapping your toe to the cute beat.

lyrics

Erase me, erase me
Why'd you do that to me
Erase me, erase me
And all our memories
Erase me, erase me
Why'd you do that to me
Erase me, erase me
And all our memories

Was your pain a voluntary feeling
Can you blame blissful ignorance
Or, out of virtue take away the passion
That we held in the palm of our hands

The rebel nature of the lover
Is the keeper of half your heart
And now you forget how we first me
Why'd you reset what's in your head?

Erase me, erase me
Why'd you do that to me
Erase me, erase me
And all our memories
Erase me, erase me
Why'd you do that to me
Erase me, erase me
And all our memories

The life you lose to go on living
Force yourself to rid me from your past
Into the blue I got on slippin'
This is a new variety of sad

The rebel nature of the lover
Is the keeper of half your heart
And now you forget how we first me
Why'd you reset what's in your head?

Erase me, erase me
Why'd you do that to me
Erase me, erase me
And all our memories
Erase me, erase me
Why'd you do that to me
Erase me, erase me
And all our memories

And you are my blue ruin
And you are my blue ruin

Erase me, erase me
Why'd you do that to me
Erase me, erase me
And all our memories
Erase me, erase me
Why'd you do that to me
Erase me, erase me
And all our memories

And you are my blue ruin
And you are my blue ruin
