Whenever we were faced, With the dangerous obstacles that filled this place, You took the shots, told me to stand back, Out of the line of attack, I promised to set you free, You and I and cake, we were meant to be, Never asked for anything in return, But then I left you to- Burn, my Companion Cube, How could I do this to- You never did me wrong, But now I'm alone and you're gone, You're gone, You're gone, You're gone, My heart was racing from the start, From your perfect sides to your little pink hearts, You're nothing like the other squares, No one will ever compare, Oh, my Companion Cube, How could I do this to- You never did me wrong, But now I'm alone and you're gone, You're gone, You're gone, You're gone, If I could I'd take it all back, Live forever with you instead of livin' in regret, I've lost my best friend, My heart's at its end, You always believed in me, I've abandoned you, it's now that I see, All that I've done, In the end, Aperture Science has won... Oh, my Companion Cube, How could I do this to- You never did me wrong, But now I'm alone and you're gone, You're gone, You're gone, You're gone, Oh, my Companion Cube, How could I do this to- You never did me wrong, But now I'm alone and you're gone, You're gone, You're gone, You're gone

8-Bit Memory 03:42
Feels like just yesterday, When I got your letter, left home to go getcha, Bowser's runnin' the place, Goombas and Koopas, he's sendin' his troops for ya, Thought it was worth my while, I'll be divin' in pipes, pullin' that fight for you, And what did you do,... I thought I loved you... You're always such a princess, What use are your dainty hands, When you can't manage a day, without a man, You're always gettin' kidnapped, You never put up a fight, I want my own life, You're just an 8-Bit memory, You always get the best of me, Now I'll take it day by day, I don't really need to see your pretty face, Get someone else to save ya, You and I are over, Got me like a chomp on a chain, Your golden locks are drivin' me insane, Free me of this bind... But you're the princess, everyone bows to you and your pink dress, Got the Mushroom Kingdom fooled, But I'm no sucker who's in love with you, So what if you're perfect, So what if I think you're just right? I want my own life, You're just an 8-bit memory, You always get the best of me, Now I'll take it day by day, I don't really need to see your pretty face, Get someone else to save ya, You and I are over, Got me like a chomp on a chain, Your golden locks are drivin' me insane, Free me of this bind... I never thought it'd be you who'd leave me, I'm cryin' every night, my only friend's Luigi, No starman, No 1up, no use for love is blind, What use are 3 lives, When my heart's dead inside, Now I'll take it day by day, I don't really need to see your pretty face, Get someone else to save ya, You and I are over, Got me like a chomp on a chain, Your golden locks are drivin' me insane, Free me of this bind... You're just an 8-bit Memory... You always get the best of me..

I don't want to teach you flash, I can't take it back I don't want to teach you flash, I can't take it back There's so much more that you can do there's a move for me and a move for you, it's true I want you to get rid of splash, it's a dumb attack But I still don't want to teach you flash, I can't take it back There's so much more that you can do You don't need another stupid move, it's true I can give you strength I'll teach you to fly I'll teach you to swim, through the waters we will dive I'll teach you to dig, in the mountains we will go I'll teach you to cut into the forests of unknown I don't want to teach you flash, I can't take it back
