I think the lyrics about selling the car, walking for miles, living live in taxis connects in such a way that it tells about her and the relationship. Basically the music is about losing your significant other. "And you sold your car", selling is somewhat like throwing away the things that you don't want anymore, in this case the guy broke up with her. Having a car can be seen as a comfort / luxury in life, which on the next line "now you walk for miles and your feet feels numb" can also mean that his life is not comfortable anymore now that she's gone and his heart is not feeling any love (numb). The taxi part "and I hope yoy're happy living life in taxis" can explain how he tries to find new lovers but no one really lasts (only temporarily). NIKI, YOUR LYRICS ARE SO GENIUS. MY QUEEEN 🔥😭
Ya..i feel so bad about that she is very talented girl..for real😭...she can singing with so beautiful voice...she can make a song...she can played guitar keyboard...so please guys let's support the best for her🙏
What I really love about Niki is that THIS IS HER VOICE. like she doesn’t need any type of auto tune and her voice sounds the exact same live as it does in recordings. Don’t even let me start about how good of a lyricist she is too wowww
As great of a singer as she is, these are prerecorded vocals. This is quite literally a music video, as you said, she sounds the exact same as she does in the actual song which is true because this the recording of that song just dubbed over in post
I used to listen to Niki when she's still known as Nicole Zefanya and my gosh the set up and her playing the guitar with that angle just -- triggers memories from her old videos. It just shows how far she has achieve and that she is able to release her works. Glad I was in for the journey and would gladly stick around ti'll sunsets and sunrise.
nangis banget denger lagu ini, relate banget sama kenyataan. dia bener bener udah punya pacar, aku sakit hati udah banyak bangett. i love you niki tetep semangat ❤❤❤
Shes fckin genius songwriter. She uses many homophones in this song. 1.25 - “hope New York holds you” (Actual lyric) and it might sounds like “hope New York cold to you” She deeply want him to feel regret. 2.17 - “you always have me” it sounds like “you’re always happy” she realized that he is always happy even without her. Thats a genius
what are you even saying? if Niki not sign to 88 and keep stay in indo, she will not get exposure, you will not know about her by now (or if you're indon then she's not getting internasional audience)
The guy who used to like me and the first I fell in love with leaves the city next week and I move to a new school this fall. We haven’t talked in months but we saw each other the other day at our previous school and he texted to tell me it was nice to see me again. It was a hello that sounded like a good bye. We’re both moving on to our new lives. It’s bittersweet.
Lyrics: While I'm on Sunset, are you on the subway? While I drive, are you gettin' on the L-train? I mean, Manhattan's nice, but so are Malibu nights You would know if you stayed, you would know if you put up a fight Your toes turn blue in winter, I'm gettin' red, rum Does the trick for all of the things left unsaid, I'm Missin' our drunken 2 A.M. strolls in K-Town Now you're chasing fake highs in the Upper West Side And fuckin' on Brooklyns in Brooklyn Your Chelseas in Chelsea Hope that eases the pain, so you remember to miss me And you sold your car, now you walk for miles Bet your feet feel numb (Crosswalks in my mind are shaky, so please hold on tight) All my demons run wild All my demons have your smile In the city of angels, in the city of angels Hope New York holds you Hope it holds you like I do While my demons stay faithful In the city of angels Summer's endin' now and the nights are coolin' down Remember last winter when we would drive around? Silverlake, Hollywood, pretty little white lies got me good Thought this was love, I was misunderstood, mmm Feelin' low on the low, drivin' through NoHo If I'm honest, I'd call, but I'm trying to let go And I hope you're happy, livin' life in taxis But you'll always have me, you'll always have me All my demons run wild All my demons have your smile In the city of angels, in the city of angels Hope New York holds you Hope it holds you like I do While my demons stay faithful In the city of angels
Pam Yang I think she’s referring to their past. When you read the chorus it talks about how she hopes that New York (new girl) holds the guy the way that she used to when he was still in Los Angeles (city of angels).
Ayah? Cuma di sini aku ga malu ngomong. Ayah aku kangen sama ayah tapi ayah sekarang udah ga sakit yaa? Ayah udah bisa lari-lari tanpa mengeluh sakit.

Makasih udah biayain aku❤ ternyata ayah ga jahat. Maaf yaa ayah aku sayang ayah selamanya. Maaf kemarin aku suka marah. Aku nyesel banget ayah mungkin nyangka aku benci sama ayah. Ayah lihatin aku di sana ya?? Aku akan jadi dokter yang sukses kok! Nanti mobil pertamaku Pajero Sport ya? Mobil impian ayah soalnya dari dulu pas kita naik motor ada mobil itu ayah mesti bilang mau beli itu dek! Iyaa nanti beli ya?? ❤❤❤
Hi Niki, You probably wouldn't see this but thank you so much for creating beautiful songs like this. I really cried so hard after listening to your songs because it perfectly reciprocates what I'm going through right now after I saw my first love. But he lives now from thousand miles away here. Plus he has a girlfriend and going back there in couple of days. It just goddamn hurts to see his face again after so many years. I'm crying right now as I typed this... But thank you so much your angelic voice is like my therapy and it kept me going. Much love, E
this song, specifically this version, is just so special to me. a couple days after this version was uploaded, it was my 20th birthday. i was celebrating the day in the city i love the most, the place where i feel most at home. i put the video on loop for the longest time, it made me feel warm and safe. it will always be special to me, be it back then, now, or 5, 20 years in the future.

Damn this song hits me so hard. I recently moved to DC from LA for a job, which catalyzed the break up between me and my ex. While it was an unhealthy relationship (and it was more important for me to pursue my career than to stay in an unfulfilling relationship), I still loved him deeply. This song makes me feel like he's singing the lyrics to me... Crazy how songs can thoroughly speak to our lived experiences and emotions. "You would know if you stayed... You'll always have me..."
I am a new fan of Niki. I discovered her with her song, Indigo. Don't know but she gives a vibe to me that cheers me up. I was in the point that I am worthless and no one cares about me. I was in the point that I am thinking if they'll know my worth if I am dead. She saved me from that deep trench of mine. Thank you Niki, your songs are my happy pill.
Hey, I bumped into a piano vocal cover video of this first (just 5mins ago) and that was the first I heard of you, let alone the song itself. Your signing is just right, but it is your songwriting and the arrangement that gives its replay value. I haven’t been moved like this by popular music since I first heard Laura Mulva’s music. You are very talented. Don’t let the industry sully you. You are very special.
This song makes me so sad. I had a crush on a guy I knew since 4th grade (I'm now a sophomore in college). He always had this huge ego and he was bullied for it. I saw through all of it. He had strict parents and out of everyone, he was the hardest on himself. I like him even though he was outwardly rude to me, my friends, and even adults. He boasted about how smart he was ALL the time, and he was smart, but people hated him for that. He grew up and this disappeared. Halfway through high school, he realized how much of a douchebag he was. He used to be super short and now he's super tall. He used to have the messiest mop of curly dark hair but now it's coiffed. He used to wear track pants and sweaters and now he dresses like a frat boy. He had many haters and now he has many friends. He won many academic awards, and now he goes to Columbia University in Manhattan. Even though he grew up in appearance, he grew up inside the most. No matter how he changed, he's still the sensitive and ambitious boy I met in 4th grade. My best friends hated him (for valid reasons) so I never told them how I felt about him. I hid this secret since 4th grade and I have still never told a single person. When I listen to this song, it reminds me of how he's living it up in New York City, working for and getting to live his dreams. He's really my inspiration. I don't live in Los Angeles, I live in the Midwest, but the lyrics still pierce my core. I miss him a lot, and I always wonder how he's doing. I stalk his Spotify. === edit (July 17, 2020): I'm still working on the Wattpad story so please stay tuned! Also, I can't find his Spotify anymore can I get an F in chat
Henry Low In the first line she’s basically saying that even though he hurt her badly she’ll always be there for him. In the second line the city of angels is Los Angeles a city in California where she lived, the demons are her the bad feelings that follow or are “faithful” so she’s hinting at the irony
I'm here because NIKI is such a queen. We really appreciate that many people recognized NIKI because she deserves it but pls stop commenting that "I came here because of..." let's just enjoy and appreciate NIKI and her songs
niki i truly admire your voice, songs, and crafts. .. and if u ever see this comment i hope u know how many people including me support and love you 💖🌟
This is heartbreaking. She's the LA girl who got replaced by a Brooklyn, Chelsea then now New york girl. 😭 such a brilliant way to put it in a song. 💔💔💔💔
i heard a decent amount of kpop idols like her music, i mean who wouldnt? shes the only person who speaks to my soul ,that I can relate to thank you NIKI.... i love you
This song makes me thinking about my crush. I love him till now. 7 years i m so in love with him . But he is doesn't love me back. But i keep this love and still pray that he can find a great girl who love him more than i do
So here’s my story Sometime in late 2016, I stumbled across a video entitled “Peter Pan”. I curiously listened to the song. It was by a young Indonesian girl named Nicole Zefanya. I was taken aback by her acoustic indie style, the way she narrated a story in her lyrics, and her use of complex and raw vocabulary. I became a huge follower of her and always listened to her uploads. I wanted to be like her. I wanted to produce music that carried emotions and memories like hers, and I wanted to be such a unique musician as she was. After a while, Nicole privated all of her videos. She joined 88rising, and I occasionally listened to her music. I didn’t enjoy it as much. I thought that she changed too much and lost the style that I loved so much. Slowly, I listened through all of her new music. When I came across this video a few days ago, I had an epiphany. Nicole has always been Niki. She hasn’t changed at all. She’s still the same. This song brings back so many of the memories I had in 2016, and i feel terrible for misinterpreting her dreams. They’re not mine to decipher or mess with.
Heard of Niki for a while but never listened to her songs and this was the first one I came across. And this one instantly became my favourite song for now. Words can't express how good is this song and how good is Niki's voice
honestly I love the poetry and word play in her lyrics and I can't even describe the feelings I get when I listen to her music and get to hear them and my creative writing brain goes crazy and I can just get lost in the words and the music and everything meets and just sdjfa ok
true! i studied songwriting and i can say all of her songs are masterpieces! the way she puts everything together with all of the wordplay is making my heart go 😱😱😱
Her voice and the beautifully written lyrics has been stuck in my head for days since I first heard it on Spotify.. When she said "pretty little white lies got me good. thought this was love, I was misunderstood" damn I felt that. I'm currently at a moving on stage from a relationship that failed since we became long distance bc of covid lockdown. We used to be together everyday and it's been hard but we tried to make it work. I'm slowly coming to a realization that looking back at our memories, it already seemed like it's going nowhere but I was too busy looking at him through rose-colored glasses. Being apart just seemed to trigger us both because our situation became too inconvenient and apparently we weren't that solid. All I could say is that I'm also done making excuses for him and waiting for him to change. I won't hold on to empty promises anymore because I know I deserve better and I'll just focus on working on myself. Someday I'll be able to love again and that person will be everything I prayed for and more. I''ll look back at this comment someday, fully healed.
Acoustic makes the song deeper and more heartbreaking. It has become one of my favourite. So glad that you released it in Spotify. You did great, NIKI.
To Nathan, This song will always and always be about you. I am sorry we had to separate ways to grow. It's the best thing to do after all. I am sorry for having hurt you while I was hurting too. I hope you peace, serenity, growth and happiness. I will live a life of growth, too. If God permits us to meet again, I will trust in His will. I love you. Sincerely, E
This was my comfort song when I was still crying at midnight bc of pain and listening to it now while looking back, im so grateful coz I have finally moved on
In my deep heart: I am so so glad Niki pursued her dream to other country rather than her country. Because she probably can't sing and convey emotions like this in her country.
can blinks stfu about lisa for 1minute tho? lister to the song appreciate the fucking artist instead of the friend(?) like dont u realize how annoying yall are?
@@minatwom why dont you appreciate the song on your own, we appreciate it and were thankful cause lisa recommend her songs cause its good aside from their friendship.
"But you'll always have me, you'll always have me" is probably one of the most painful and truthful lyrics a song can have🥹 It's the thought that no matter what happens and no matter how painful our ending was, you will always have me and I will always wish you the best and all the happiness this world could ever give🥺
I'm crying, i'm alone, and i feel so much pain... i thought i was surrender and thinking about ended my life. But this song make me feel better maybe another chance for my life? I don't wanna die like this... thank you niki❤
I cried last night. Afraid that i'll lose my bestfriends again. Unable to say that i love them very much cause i feel like i'll lose them if i love them very muchh
This song hits me so hard. The guy I love so much broke up with me last February and came back to me at March. He told me that he still loves me, he was so depressed and I should wait for him until everything is fine. I waited. Then on April 5 I asked him about what we are. We're not in a relationship but we still have sex. He said he dont know. Then I asked him if he still loves me. Again, he said he dont know. Then I asked him if wants to find another girl for him to be with, if he wants to replace me. He said Yes. That broke my me. So I let him go but I'll stay faithful and he'll always have me.
I’ve been listening to “urs” since last year ish but I didn’t really bother to find out who the singer was and that is my biggest regret because NIKI IS SUCH AN AMAZING SINGER AND SONGWRITER?????
I don't know which I love more. The original or the acoustic version? They both give different vibes and different rendition to the song made you see the song in a different light. It's like telling different story.... How? I just don't know. Niki really did that shit. 😭
I have always love this song. I always feel good when I listened to it. But today, I broke up and listen to this again, I don’t even realise tears have streaming down my face. I was crying so hard trying to let go. I want to hold on, but he chose another path. I hope one day, when I moved on and have met my better half, I would come back and listen to this song with a smile on my face 💔

"thought this was love, i was misunderstood"
the way she sing it i can feel the emotion and it makes me want to cry, she really touched my heart:)

Basically the music is about losing your significant other. "And you sold your car", selling is somewhat like throwing away the things that you don't want anymore, in this case the guy broke up with her.

She's a very talented girl, she needs more recognition. Still underated but she has a place in my heart and ears.
So damn underrated😭❤️ she deserves so much more recognition💛💜

“All my demons have your smile” is a line I never thought could have a huge impact on me and my relationships. It really hit home
Same like wtf
Definitely sounds more raw yeah
Sheeeesh
What does it mean?
@@satyabuditomo4430dude gave her trauma maybe
What I really love about Niki is that THIS IS HER VOICE. like she doesn’t need any type of auto tune and her voice sounds the exact same live as it does in recordings. Don’t even let me start about how good of a lyricist she is too wowww

Autotune is not a thing in Asia especially in our country where we have fierce music industry. Acoustic live singing is common here in SEA I guess.

It just shows how far she has achieve and that she is able to release her works. Glad I was in for the journey and would gladly stick around ti'll sunsets and sunrise.
It hits different vibe than the original. Niki is the person who rocks the original song and acoustic session
Just like "lowkey"
nangis banget denger lagu ini, relate banget sama kenyataan. dia bener bener udah punya pacar, aku sakit hati udah banyak bangett. i love you niki tetep semangat ❤❤❤
NIKI 😭 YOU PUT ALL YOUR EMOTIONS HERE AND IAM CRYING 😭
Ya niki sings with her heart and we can feel it
Shes fckin genius songwriter. She uses many homophones in this song.
1.25 - “hope New York holds you” (Actual lyric) and it might sounds like “hope New York cold to you” She deeply want him to feel regret.
2.17 - “you always have me” it sounds like “you’re always happy” she realized that he is always happy even without her.
Thats a genius
the second one hits home
i thought it seems doesn't like that, because when New York meets Hold it will sounds Cold, K and H meets will sounds like thaf
1:25 and 2:17
I actualy feel my brain's volume getting big.
@Open Mike W-Why he a simp?? He just praised and explained her creativity and musicality in the song.. well if you're joking guess I ruined the fun
“hope that eases the pain, so you remember to miss me”
i vibe with this sm
This song hits different when you lost someone you never really had in the first place.
:( I agree
True.. he broke up with me just yesterday..
Same

Lyrics:
While I'm on Sunset, are you on the subway?
While I drive, are you gettin' on the L-train?
I mean, Manhattan's nice, but so are Malibu nights
You would know if you stayed, you would know if you put up a fight
Your toes turn blue in winter, I'm gettin' red, rum
Does the trick for all of the things left unsaid, I'm
Missin' our drunken 2 A.M. strolls in K-Town
Now you're chasing fake highs in the Upper West Side
And fuckin' on Brooklyns in Brooklyn
Your Chelseas in Chelsea
Hope that eases the pain, so you remember to miss me
And you sold your car, now you walk for miles
Bet your feet feel numb
(Crosswalks in my mind are shaky, so please hold on tight)
All my demons run wild
All my demons have your smile
In the city of angels, in the city of angels
Hope New York holds you
Hope it holds you like I do
While my demons stay faithful
In the city of angels
Summer's endin' now and the nights are coolin' down
Remember last winter when we would drive around?
Silverlake, Hollywood, pretty little white lies got me good
Thought this was love, I was misunderstood, mmm
Feelin' low on the low, drivin' through NoHo
If I'm honest, I'd call, but I'm trying to let go
And I hope you're happy, livin' life in taxis
But you'll always have me, you'll always have me
All my demons run wild
All my demons have your smile
In the city of angels, in the city of angels
Hope New York holds you
Hope it holds you like I do
While my demons stay faithful
In the city of angels

Feelin' low on the low, drivin' through NoHo
If I'm honest, I'd call, but I'm trying to let go
And I hope you're happy, livin' life in taxis
But you'll always have me, you'll always have me
[Chorus]
All my demons run wild
All my demons have your smile
In the city of angels, in the city of angels
Hope New York holds you
Hope it holds you like I do
While my demons stay faithful
In the city of angels
@seri brown ko ngomong apa sih cok
Nice
*while my demons stay faithful,*
*in the city of angels 🌹*
This is how much that we want this angel to shine

i've been listening to this song for 3 years and still, I'm not getting bored at it. It even gets better every time.

this made me remember "nicole zefanya" songs like milkteeth, little souls vibe!
And aneheim too, damn i miss that good old vibe
@@jemima4005 "On the drive home" too 🤧💕
oceans and engine, autumn ze fallen babies
Missing the good old days
@@jemima4005 i really like Anaheim♡
This version hits viewers morethan the real MV. It shows that NIKI always nailed the LIVE ACOUSTIC version, not all singers can do that. PROUD
Damn this song hits me so hard. I recently moved to DC from LA for a job, which catalyzed the break up between me and my ex. While it was an unhealthy relationship (and it was more important for me to pursue my career than to stay in an unfulfilling relationship), I still loved him deeply. This song makes me feel like he's singing the lyrics to me... Crazy how songs can thoroughly speak to our lived experiences and emotions. "You would know if you stayed... You'll always have me..."
this song is so well written with all the right words and rhymes!
definitely trully completely damn right
Indeed!
she is queen dUdE

I am a new fan of Niki. I discovered her with her song, Indigo. Don't know but she gives a vibe to me that cheers me up. I was in the point that I am worthless and no one cares about me. I was in the point that I am thinking if they'll know my worth if I am dead. She saved me from that deep trench of mine. Thank you Niki, your songs are my happy pill.
i feel you and im so happy for you to finally be able to get outta the dark pit. :)
Same feeling😭😄
agree
Hey, I bumped into a piano vocal cover video of this first (just 5mins ago) and that was the first I heard of you, let alone the song itself. Your signing is just right, but it is your songwriting and the arrangement that gives its replay value. I haven’t been moved like this by popular music since I first heard Laura Mulva’s music.
You are very talented. Don’t let the industry sully you. You are very special.

Kak niki 😍😍
This song makes me so sad. I had a crush on a guy I knew since 4th grade (I'm now a sophomore in college). He always had this huge ego and he was bullied for it. I saw through all of it. He had strict parents and out of everyone, he was the hardest on himself. I like him even though he was outwardly rude to me, my friends, and even adults. He boasted about how smart he was ALL the time, and he was smart, but people hated him for that.
He grew up and this disappeared. Halfway through high school, he realized how much of a douchebag he was. He used to be super short and now he's super tall. He used to have the messiest mop of curly dark hair but now it's coiffed. He used to wear track pants and sweaters and now he dresses like a frat boy. He had many haters and now he has many friends. He won many academic awards, and now he goes to Columbia University in Manhattan. Even though he grew up in appearance, he grew up inside the most. No matter how he changed, he's still the sensitive and ambitious boy I met in 4th grade.
My best friends hated him (for valid reasons) so I never told them how I felt about him. I hid this secret since 4th grade and I have still never told a single person. When I listen to this song, it reminds me of how he's living it up in New York City, working for and getting to live his dreams. He's really my inspiration.
I don't live in Los Angeles, I live in the Midwest, but the lyrics still pierce my core. I miss him a lot, and I always wonder how he's doing. I stalk his Spotify.
===
edit (July 17, 2020): I'm still working on the Wattpad story so please stay tuned! Also, I can't find his Spotify anymore can I get an F in chat
This is sweet. Give him a harmless wave in any convenient platform. 😊
drop him a dm on instagram hahaahaha
this could be a short movie
thanks for your support guys :)
really love ur story!😭💙
"But you'll always have me, you'll always have me"
"While my demons stay faithful, in the city of angels"
Niki cutting onions i see
Can someone explain the lyrics a little bit more? English isn't my native language :(
Henry Low In the first line she’s basically saying that even though he hurt her badly she’ll always be there for him. In the second line the city of angels is Los Angeles a city in California where she lived, the demons are her the bad feelings that follow or are “faithful” so she’s hinting at the irony
she talks about demons cuz she stole lots of money and ran lol of course, all contacts erased/disconnected!
Acoustic versions never disappoint me.. all of her songs are bops, she’s so underrated!! stan NIKI!!.
I'm here because NIKI is such a queen.
We really appreciate that many people recognized NIKI because she deserves it but pls stop commenting that "I came here because of..." let's just enjoy and appreciate NIKI and her songs
This hits different when you're the one who let go.
:’>
pls explain,

niki i truly admire your voice, songs, and crafts. .. and if u ever see this comment i hope u know how many people including me support and love you 💖🌟
I'm here because i found out niki has a boyfriend. And he's the guitarist here!!!! I'm so happy for her 😭
are you serious girl?
@@raiakiisabelle26 omg really? wow I'm so happy for her!
@@i4ehsindie yep, me too! i wish them so much love and happiness 💗
NOOOOOO
No way
Her voice is like honey, it is so sweet. Hope one day she has the chance to win a grammy, she deserve it so much imho
This is heartbreaking. She's the LA girl who got replaced by a Brooklyn, Chelsea then now New york girl. 😭 such a brilliant way to put it in a song. 💔💔💔💔
Gosh
wow how can i just realized it? thank you, now i wanna cry
Omg😭
i heard a decent amount of kpop idols like her music, i mean who wouldnt? shes the only person who speaks to my soul ,that I can relate to thank you NIKI.... i love you
just found her stuff recently and I'm hooked. I think i figured out why I like her voice, it very clear and pleasant to listen to
This song makes me thinking about my crush. I love him till now. 7 years i m so in love with him . But he is doesn't love me back. But i keep this love and still pray that he can find a great girl who love him more than i do
this is way too good i'm tearing up
So here’s my story
Sometime in late 2016, I stumbled across a video entitled “Peter Pan”. I curiously listened to the song. It was by a young Indonesian girl named Nicole Zefanya. I was taken aback by her acoustic indie style, the way she narrated a story in her lyrics, and her use of complex and raw vocabulary. I became a huge follower of her and always listened to her uploads. I wanted to be like her. I wanted to produce music that carried emotions and memories like hers, and I wanted to be such a unique musician as she was. After a while, Nicole privated all of her videos. She joined 88rising, and I occasionally listened to her music. I didn’t enjoy it as much. I thought that she changed too much and lost the style that I loved so much. Slowly, I listened through all of her new music. When I came across this video a few days ago, I had an epiphany. Nicole has always been Niki. She hasn’t changed at all. She’s still the same. This song brings back so many of the memories I had in 2016, and i feel terrible for misinterpreting her dreams. They’re not mine to decipher or mess with.
l love this comment
nikiii, makasih udh nulis lagu ini. udh 3 tahun aku dengerinnn. lagu nangisin crush kelas 8 sih
Heard of Niki for a while but never listened to her songs and this was the first one I came across. And this one instantly became my favourite song for now. Words can't express how good is this song and how good is Niki's voice
Jx YeoH sameeee :(
honestly I love the poetry and word play in her lyrics and I can't even describe the feelings I get when I listen to her music and get to hear them and my creative writing brain goes crazy and I can just get lost in the words and the music and everything meets and just sdjfa ok
true! i studied songwriting and i can say all of her songs are masterpieces! the way she puts everything together with all of the wordplay is making my heart go 😱😱😱
She has to be good songwriter since 14 yo
@@kristinagrace9941 lllo
Ari Scroggins YES
When I thought it couldn't get any better. Niki proved me wrong. This is so goooood..
Her voice and the beautifully written lyrics has been stuck in my head for days since I first heard it on Spotify..
When she said "pretty little white lies got me good. thought this was love, I was misunderstood" damn I felt that.
I'm currently at a moving on stage from a relationship that failed since we became long distance bc of covid lockdown. We used to be together everyday and it's been hard but we tried to make it work. I'm slowly coming to a realization that looking back at our memories, it already seemed like it's going nowhere but I was too busy looking at him through rose-colored glasses. Being apart just seemed to trigger us both because our situation became too inconvenient and apparently we weren't that solid. All I could say is that I'm also done making excuses for him and waiting for him to change. I won't hold on to empty promises anymore because I know I deserve better and I'll just focus on working on myself.
Someday I'll be able to love again and that person will be everything I prayed for and more.
I''ll look back at this comment someday, fully healed.
I can feel the pain through NIKI's voice
Acoustic makes the song deeper and more heartbreaking. It has become one of my favourite. So glad that you released it in Spotify. You did great, NIKI.
her voice is so soft and elegant yet so strong and moving ): really hope i can watch her live day some day
To Nathan,
This song will always and always be about you. I am sorry we had to separate ways to grow. It's the best thing to do after all. I am sorry for having hurt you while I was hurting too. I hope you peace, serenity, growth and happiness. I will live a life of growth, too. If God permits us to meet again, I will trust in His will. I love you.
Sincerely, E
crying rn eating my bagel this is an excellent start to my day :’)
😂😂
this sentence is an experience on top of niki's experience, thank you :') mooood
I'm glad that I can capture a mood that cannot be explained otherwise haha
this reminded me of her old acoustic covers. niki, thank you SO much for this. love you guuurl. 🥺💛
Her voice has the power to make me cry even when i'm in the best mood😔😢
This was my comfort song when I was still crying at midnight bc of pain and listening to it now while looking back, im so grateful coz I have finally moved on
like, who hurt this girl, the emotions seep out like she been through it.
In my deep heart:
I am so so glad Niki pursued her dream to other country rather than her country. Because she probably can't sing and convey emotions like this in her country.
NIKI rlly don’t need any auto tune. Her voice IS auto tune.
I come here to listen to this masterpiece after seeing Niki post with LISA on IG. Niki and Lisa are reunited after 2 years. My fav girls!!!
This version hits differently
use earphone and you’ll fall asleep with this
I litteraly sleep with this song on repeat last night
i actually tried this and it works like a charm
im having a goosebump all the way to the end
Lisa always supports niki that's why she always has a nikki song on her playlist!
Yes cause both has taste!
Yesss
And also jungkook loves this song too
can blinks stfu about lisa for 1minute tho?
lister to the song appreciate the fucking artist instead of the friend(?) like dont u realize how annoying yall are?
@@minatwom why dont you appreciate the song on your own, we appreciate it and were thankful cause lisa recommend her songs cause its good aside from their friendship.
"But you'll always have me, you'll always have me" is probably one of the most painful and truthful lyrics a song can have🥹 It's the thought that no matter what happens and no matter how painful our ending was, you will always have me and I will always wish you the best and all the happiness this world could ever give🥺
"if I'm honest I'd call
but I'm trying to let go"
:-(
This is my fav lyric tbh
@@natalisyasimbolon9307 same :< it's honestly one of the realest lyrics I've heard from her yet
Kkkkkkkkkkkk
We all have been there. Damn
Fuck it’s hurt but it’s true dude
Bangga banget org indonesia yg mempunyai kualitas go internasional seperti niki

The lyrics have so many "layers" it's sooo nice and I love to think about the interpretation

I cried last night. Afraid that i'll lose my bestfriends again. Unable to say that i love them very much cause i feel like i'll lose them if i love them very muchh
this song is a masterpiece. it never gets old, and i’m always overloaded with emotions whenever i hear it. you go, niki! wishing you all the best
This song hits me so hard.
The guy I love so much broke up with me last February and came back to me at March. He told me that he still loves me, he was so depressed and I should wait for him until everything is fine. I waited. Then on April 5 I asked him about what we are. We're not in a relationship but we still have sex.
He said he dont know. Then I asked him if he still loves me. Again, he said he dont know. Then I asked him if wants to find another girl for him to be with, if he wants to replace me. He said Yes. That broke my me.
So I let him go but I'll stay faithful and he'll always have me.
Who ever broke niki's heart, damn boii why u break her heartttt she's already a golddd :(
Who's her ex anyways
Me
@@bloemenstadvoetbalbdg9306 in ur dreams 🥴
the song is about losing her mom
@@annadelbacungan654 "pretty little wild eyes got me good" and "thought this was love I was misunderstood"
Ivonne Lemus HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
i'm always falling in love with niki's acoustic songs ver, who's with me?
I’ve been listening to “urs” since last year ish but I didn’t really bother to find out who the singer was and that is my biggest regret because NIKI IS SUCH AN AMAZING SINGER AND SONGWRITER?????
seems like this masterpice should be on spotify too!!! im begging for justice huh✊
anyone else feel like crying over their non existent exes
OMG TEA
let myself get led on & lowkey ghosted by a guy from LA this weekend, when i tell you this song hit hard i swear
i dont
I feel ya
me
watching her doing acoustics reminds me of the days where she used to upload covers and told us to wear headphones
this version is a gift!! been on repeat for several days now. i love it!!
I don't know which I love more. The original or the acoustic version? They both give different vibes and different rendition to the song made you see the song in a different light. It's like telling different story.... How? I just don't know. Niki really did that shit. 😭
I have always love this song. I always feel good when I listened to it. But today, I broke up and listen to this again, I don’t even realise tears have streaming down my face. I was crying so hard trying to let go. I want to hold on, but he chose another path. I hope one day, when I moved on and have met my better half, I would come back and listen to this song with a smile on my face 💔
You're songs are art and yet you're so under rated. I'm so proud I get to listen to these songs before it goes viral tho
THE WAY SHE SAYS "Crosswalks in my mind are shaky, so please hold on tight" IS EVERYTHING TO ME
