Can’t be happy by your side
Bad feelings come first
I want you to be unhappy

Again, I force a smile
The lyrics depict the painful and raw aftermath of a breakup, challenging the convention of being a benevolent and forgiving ex-partner. The narrator confesses that they are not an angel, admitting to harboring bitter and malicious feelings of wishing the other person’s unhappiness out of deep hurt. Despite trying to put on a forced smile, they struggle with a chaotic whirlwind of lingering attachments and unresolved anger, exposing the vulnerable and human side of enduring emotional turmoil and heartbreaking separation.
