It’s Ok If You Forget Me Lyrics
Two weeks and I wait 'til the feeling hits
Maybe I just haven't let it sink in
For three years we were living together
Held me like you'd hold me forever
Didn't think that heartbreak would feel like this
[Pre-Chorus]
From everything to nothing at all
From every day to never at all
And everyone says that I should be sad
Is it normal that
[Chorus]
I don't feel sorry for myself
Care if your hands touch somebody else
Wouldn't get jealous if you're happy
It's okay if you forget me
I don't feel empty now that you're gone
Does that mean it didn't mean nothing at all?
But I'll tell you what the worst is
It's the way it doesn't hurt
When I wish it did
[Verse 2]
Patience is a thing that I learned from you
That some things can feel wrong even though they're true
Went through all the hard times together
Kept me calm when I'd lose my temper
I'm just really grateful that I had you
From everything to nothing at all
Every day to never at all
And everyone says that I should be sad
Is it normal that
[Chorus]
I don't feel sorry for myself
Care if your hands touch somebody else
Wouldn't get jealous if you're happy
It's okay if you forget me
I don't feel empty now that you're gone
Does that mean it didn't mean nothing at all?
And I'll tell you what the worst is
It's the way it doesn't hurt
When I wish it did
[Post-Chorus]
I wish it did
When I wish it did
[Pre-Chorus]
From everything to nothing at all
From every day to never at all
And everyone says that I should be sad
Is it normal that
I don't feel sorry for myself
Care if your hands touch somebody else
Wouldn't get jealous if you're happy
It's okay if you forget me
I don't feel empty now that you're gone
Does that mean it didn't mean nothing at all?
And I'll tell you what the worst is
It's the way it doesn't hurt
When I wish it did
I wish it did
About
This song is entirely about a breakup, yet not a heart wrenching one like most people expirience after parting from their partner. Astrid S talks about the things she took from this long relationship, but also admits that despite them she wouldn’t miss her partner at all, and in the end it’s the thing that hurts her the most. Usually after a breakup you should be sad yet she feels nothing special, which makes her doubt whether the relationship had any meaning. In the end she doesn’t care if her forgets her, because most chances she’ll forget him as well.

I woke up one day and thought “Is this what breakups supposed to feel like?” After writing this song we were listening back to the demo before leaving the studio, but right when the song ended I started crying:(:( !!
It’s a process and it definietly hits at some point. At least I got to write this song with some of my favorite people and I’m really glad I get to share it with all of you
