Forget About Us

NuNew's song 'Forget About Us' delves into the emotional turmoil of a relationship that has come to an end, yet the feelings linger on. The lyrics poignantly capture the struggle of moving on while still being haunted by memories of a past love. The opening lines, 'tang thi rao gor roo yoo kae jai / laew tamai yang rak,' translate to 'we know in our hearts / but why do we still love?' This sets the tone for the entire song, highlighting the internal conflict between knowing a relationship is over and still feeling deeply connected to the other person.

The recurring theme of pain and longing is evident throughout the song. Lines like 'jep thee man tam dai khae mong / rak khaawng rao tee lerng loi bpai' ('the pain can only be watched / our love that floats away') emphasize the helplessness and sorrow that accompany the end of a meaningful relationship. The metaphor of love floating away like a balloon suggests a sense of loss and the inability to grasp onto something that once felt so secure.

NuNew's heartfelt delivery and the melancholic melody further amplify the song's emotional weight. The repeated refrain, 'sak wan neung chan roo waa ther ja luem thueang kheun khaawng rao / chan roo waa ther luem thuk yaang yaang leu rao glap mai roo jak gan,' which means 'one day I know you will forget our memories / I know you will forget everything and we will become strangers,' encapsulates the inevitable reality of moving on. This song resonates with anyone who has experienced the pain of a breakup, making it a poignant anthem for those grappling with the complexities of love and loss.
