A snippet of the song was first shared in January of 2020 by producer and blink-182 drummer Travis Barker. The release of the Halsey-assisted track arrives shortly after MGK confirmed his relationship with actress Megan Fox. Referenced on “banyan tree (interlude),” the two celebrated their romance with personalized tattoos:
Like, you just got my initials tattooed on you
I got your nickname tattooed on me
The pop-punk anthem details MGK’s desire for stable love over temporary affection.
forget me too

You want me to forget you
Okay, forget me too
You tell me you hate me
Baby, yeah, I bet you do
Damn
Not to panic while I'm lookin' for the back door
I smell the perfume and it's obvious
I'm gonna stay and put my key in the back more
I can't, I can't, I can't pretend to forget you're
The reason I punched a hole in the wall back home
And then, and then, and then a couple hours later we're in Room 29 at The Chateau
I left before you woke up
I don't feel right (see you sober)
You want me to forget you
Okay, forget me too
You tell me you hate me
Baby, yeah, I bet you do
I'm keepin' you waitin'
But I won't wait on you
Want me to forget you
Okay, forget me too
I've wasted so much time
Waitin' around for your phone calls every night
My bad dreams are silk screens
'Cause I taste blood when you bleed
It's eatin' me alive
We'd both be better off alone
Still think I'd get you on the phone
With one last breath in me
I'd die before I'd let you leave
You left before I woke up
Why don't I ever see you sober?
You want me to forget you
Okay, forget me too
You tell me you hate me
Baby, yeah, I bet you do
I'm keepin' you waitin'
But I won't wait on you
You want me to forget you
Okay, forget me too
Hey you
Tell me why you do the things that make me (hate you)
It's an emotional kaleidoscope when I (face you)
Permanent calligraphy, I just tattooed your name on me forever
You want me to forget you
Okay, forget me too
You tell me you hate me
Baby, yeah, I bet you do
I'm keepin' you waitin' (waitin')
But I won't wait on you
Want me to forget you
Okay, forget me too
The lyrics to Machine Gun Kelly's "Forget Me Too" are about a toxic relationship that has ended. The singer acknowledges that the other person wants him to forget about the relationship and move on, but he cannot do so. The chorus repeats the phrase "you want me to forget you, okay, forget me too," conveying that the singer is hurt and frustrated by the other person's desire to erase everything that had happened between them. The song is filled with raw emotion that is relatable to anyone who has loved and lost.
The first verse describes the singer's initial reaction to seeing the other person after their break-up. He tries to remain calm and not panic but can't help noticing her perfume. This shows that even though the relationship has ended, the feelings are still strong. The second verse portrays the singer's frustration with waiting for the other person's phone calls every night and how it has led to bad dreams. The bridge of the song highlights the depth of the singer's feelings, the intense love and hatred he has for the other person, as well as the extent he is willing to go to keep them.
Overall, the song is about two people trying to move on from a toxic relationship, and how hard it is to forget someone you once loved so deeply. The chorus's repetition emphasizes the pain of holding on while acknowledging that both parties need to let go.

Hello i hope you are fine , only if you are interested,Take this opportunity, if you allow me, to tell you something important:
that there is one god with no partners ,has no son or wife
, God is nothing like him,
God sent many messengers, including Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and the last of them Muhammad, peace be upon them. All of them were sent to spread the doctrine mentioned above.
What i am Telling you is not a fleeting thing that we can easily take or reject. It is a very important thing for our happiness in this world and our survival in the hereafter. He who is not happy is depressed, and he who is not survivor in the hereafter is mortal.

So when will Halsey do a punk album. she would be perfect.
@joerandl9252
pop punk
@sophiaerinnmape1678
true, true, she already has vibes for it in Manic, but since it wasn't the overall theme of it, it was only in a couple, but I fuckin loved those (as most songs of Halsey's)
@calistusjay60
Punk is coming back into the mainstream soon with albums like this. Also, Avril Lavigne is releasing a new album this year. When it's back in the mainstream, every artist is gonna release a pop-punk song. Trust me. Just like with the 80s trend in 2020. She'll do an album then.
@maddoxcindy5017
@@calistusjay60 did you just say Avril Lavigne? Holy shit dude!! 😳
@maddoxcindy5017
@@calistusjay60 and yeah it’s true, many are returning to 80s synth or rock and early 2000s because those times and the music have been great. The Weeknd, Miley Cyrus and many other (including mostly unknown artists) have brought songs with that vibe but also rising stars like iann Dior have mixed it with new school rap and that also sounds good ngl
