[Pre-Chorus]
Well, you see it slipped away
Now time to me
’Cause I’ve done a hundred things
You've only dreamed

[Chorus]
So don’t come crying to me
Don't come trying again
No matter how I feel, don't call us friends
'Cause I don’t remember anymore how we used to be
No, I don't remember anymore how I used to feel
Don't call us

[Chorus]
So don't come crying to me
Don't come trying again
No matter how I feel, don't call us friends
'Cause I don't remember anymore how we used to be
No, I don't remember anymore how I used to feel
Don't call us friends

What did Dido say about "Friends"?

“There’s been many people in the past who have said ‘you can’t do this’ and ‘you’re not good enough. But when everyone’s back is turned I’ll get on with doing what I am going to do and then see how we all feel at the end of it. So part of it is ‘well, look at me now, I’ve done fine’. Success is the best revenge.“ —Dido, Essentially Pop
