lyrics

And I'm sorry that I said I would never let go
I never got the chance for it, I hope you know
Please don't take it the wrong way
It was just a mistake
I know I messed it up this time
Won't bore you with the story or the messy details
Cause you know how it went
How it got derailed
Now I know I'm being selfish when I ask you this
But can we at least still be friends?

A 21st century romance with a cliche ending
Met up in a Discord
It was so impending
After it happened I wasn't even the same gender
I wish we could have at least stayed until December
Remember how it all used to be simple back then
On a call, hearing the same song again and again
I hope I'm not the only one who missed it all
I hope you're also missing me

You got me talking all about it
And I’ve got no doubt about it
I gotta be honest with you
That one Smiths song you loved
I hate it

Pintsized little drops of love
Then likewise
And it’s not enough
Go clockwise
Taking different sides
At least I got the debt paid off

Just work it out, please?
We can make it through, please?
And a million different words that didn’t make you stay
I gotta move on
I gotta find a way out
Maybe in my next life, I’ll know better

Just enjoy it
You’re along for the ride
Can’t help it
This is who we are inside
Lately I’ve been trying to stay sane in my head
And I’m singing this instead

I never could’ve wondered - why oh why
Should’ve never promised such a simple lie
When you were gone, I had to figure out for myself
Why “I love you” is so insidious

And I'm sorry that I said I would never let go

I better never talk about it
Just keep my mouth shut about it
And all these memories in me
It’s just gone like that
Yeah, it’s gone

Pintsized little drops of love
Then likewise
And it’s not enough
Go clockwise
Taking different sides
At least I got the debt paid off

Just work it out, please?
We can make it through, please?
And a million different words that didn’t make you say
I gotta move on
I gotta find a way out
Maybe in my next life, I’ll know better

I'm sorry that I said I would never let go
