How You Remind Me is a song recorded and covered by Avril Lavigne, it was written by Lavigne's ex-husband Chad Kroeger and David Hodges. Chad Kroeger, sang the song with his band, Nickelback. On February 21, 2014, Avril uploaded the audio to the song on her YouTube VEVO channel.

Background[]

Avril was in the studio with Kroeger working on her fifth studio album when she was asked to contribute a song to the film but didn't have time to write another during the studio sessions they had left. Kroeger later commented that "Avril jokingly suggested to cover a Nickelback song, but then we both figured it'd actually be a good idea to do "How You Remind Me". We recorded a version more similar to the original, but we both were not happy with it, thinking it needs its own spin. Avril then rearranged the song and we all liked it."

Lyrics[]

Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing
Tired of living like a blind man
I'm sick of sight without a sense of feeling

This is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handing you a heart worth breaking

And I've been wrong, I've been down
To the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head
Scream, "Are we having fun yet?"
"Are we having fun yet?"

It's not like you didn't know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
It must have been so bad
'Cause living with me must have damn near killed you

This is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handing you a heart worth breaking

And I've been wrong, I've been down
And to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head
Scream, "Are we having fun yet?"

This is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handing you a heart worth breaking

I've been wrong, I've been down
To the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head
Scream, "Are we having fun yet?"

Are we having fun yet?
