Better Goodbye
Unveiling Heartbreak: Seeking Closure in Deceptive Farewells
Lyrics
Is it true what they say?
Questioning the truth of rumors or statements about the past.
That she was in your life
Wondering if another person (she) was part of the past relationship.
Long before you started walking out of mine
Reflecting on the duration of the past relationship and its impact on the current situation.
Was any of it even true?
Questioning the authenticity of past statements and actions.
You said "It's me, not you" and the age gap too
Recalling a breakup explanation involving personal reasons and an age gap, comparing to someone younger.
Yet she's younger than us two
Noting the age of the mentioned person in comparison to the speaker and the ex-partner.
In a perfect world I'd just let go
Expressing the desire to let go and move on in an ideal world, acknowledging the difficulties in reality.
In a perfect world I'd just move on
-But this imperfect world just leaves you scared
-I deserved a better goodbye
Expressing disappointment in the inadequacy of the breakup, citing fake words, excuses, and lies, and feeling blamed for the end.
Than your fake words, excuses and lies
-Made it look like I'm the one to blame
-Now I'm starting to see it was just a game
-I deserved a better goodbye
Reiterating the desire for a better farewell, expressing doubts, and self-questioning due to the impact of the breakup.
Cause now, in my mind, everybody lies
-Now I doubt, now I question myself
-That's what you did to me, look at yourself
-Are you supposed to fall in love
Questioning the expectations around falling in love after a certain duration of a relationship and a brief separation.
After seven months together and just two weeks apart
-In a perfect world I'd just let go
Repeating the desire to let go and move on in an ideal world, acknowledging the difficulties in reality.
In a perfect world I'd just move on
-But this imperfect world just leaves you scared
-I deserved a better goodbye
Repeating the sentiment of deserving a better farewell, realizing the breakup was like a game with blame unfairly placed.
Than your fake words, excuses and lies
-Made it look like I'm the one to blame
-Now I'm starting to see it was just a game
-I deserved a better goodbye
Reiterating doubts and self-questioning due to the impact of the breakup, prompting reflection on the ex-partner's actions.
Cause now, in my mind, everybody lies
-Now I doubt, now I question myself
-That's what you did to me, look at yourself
-I see you on your stories
Observing the ex-partner's activities on social media and expressing hope for their new relationship to bring happiness.
Doing things that you did with me
-I hope she is happy
-The way you never were with me
-I deserved a better goodbye
Reiterating the disappointment in the inadequacy of the breakup, with a focus on the unfair blame placed on the speaker.
Than your fake words, excuses and lies
-Made it look like I'm the one to blame
-Now I'm starting to see it was just a game
-I deserved a better goodbye
Reiterating doubts and self-questioning due to the impact of the breakup, prompting reflection on the ex-partner's actions.
Cause now, in my mind, everybody lies
-Now I doubt, now I question myself
-That's what you did to me, look at yourself
-Look at yourself
Repeatedly urging the ex-partner to self-reflect and consider their own actions in the aftermath of the breakup.
Look at yourself
-Look at yourself
-Look at yourself
-Look at yourself
-Look at yourself
-Look at yourself
