Lyrics

No, no, no

Strongly expressing denial or rejection.

No, no, no

-

I caught your face on my timeline

Referring to seeing someone's face on a social media timeline.

Haven't seen you in months

Not having seen the person in months.

Sure, you ran through my mind

Acknowledging thoughts about the person but not due to missing their love.

But not 'cause I missed your love

Attributing the thoughts to bad timing.

Chalk it up to bad timing

Referring to a painful experience, possibly a breakup (bled through my shirt).

But I bled through my shirt

Emphasizing the emotional pain endured.

Though I put it behind me

Claiming to have moved on from the pain.

Seeing your face still hurts

Expressing that seeing the person's face still causes emotional pain.

Oh my god

Describing the lingering bitterness and demons caused by the past relationship.

I can't get rid of the bitterness

-

Oh my god

-

You bred the demons I'm living with

-

I can't believe I loved you

Expressing disbelief at having loved the person, juxtaposed with current hatred.

Knowing how much I hate you now

-

And if I'm honest

Difficulty in even saying the person's name out loud due to emotional pain.

I can't even say your name out loud

-

Don't get me started

Strongly asserting increased happiness since parting ways.

I'm happier since we parted

-

I can't believe I loved you

Reiterating the contrast between past love and current hatred.

Knowing how much I hate you now

-

No, no, no

Reiterating the strong negative feelings towards the person.

No, knowing how much I hate you now

-

I'm not looking for closure

Not seeking closure or grieving, but wanting the person to understand the pain caused.

I'm not grieving what's lost

-

I just want you to know

Highlighting the consequences of the person's actions on the speaker's emotions.

What twisting your knife has caused

-

Oh my god

Repeating the theme of struggling with bitterness and demons caused by the past relationship.

I can't get rid of the bitterness

-

Oh my god

-

You bred the demons I'm living with

-

I can't believe I loved you

Revisiting the contradiction of having loved the person and now hating them.

Knowing how much I hate you now

-

And if I'm honest

Emphasizing the difficulty in vocalizing the person's name due to emotional pain.

I can't even say your name out loud

-

Don't get me started

Asserting ongoing happiness since the separation.

I'm happier since we parted

-

I can't believe I loved you

Reiterating the theme of disbelief in having once loved the person.

Knowing how much I hate you now

-

No, no, no

Reaffirming the strong negative feelings towards the person.

No, knowing how much I hate you now

-

No, no, no

Reiterating the intensity of hatred towards the person.

No, knowing how much I hate you now

Rose-coloured skies

Metaphorical description of the past relationship using rose-colored skies, almond eyes, and castles of sand.

Hid our demise

Your almond eyes

Branded in my brain

You took my hand

Built what you planned

Castles of sand

In a hurricane
