Lyrics

Selective memories affect brain chemistry

Selective memories impact the brain's chemistry.

To sweeten times you shared

Revisiting pleasant moments to make them more appealing.

Intense toxicity and negative energy

Strong negativity and harmful energy become hidden.

All become obscured

All negative aspects become unclear or concealed.

I know you're hurting now but don't let that tempt you

Despite the pain, resist the temptation caused by current emotions.

The rose tinted glasses that you wear just taint the truth

Perceptions distorted by overly optimistic views affect reality.

It may take a while but trust in time

Time has the power to heal wounds; trust in its effectiveness.

And it will heal the wounds

Time will eventually mend emotional injuries.

Let exes remain exes once it's through

After a relationship ends, maintain the status of "exes."

'Cause if it failed once

If a relationship failed once, it is likely to fail again.

Regardless of your wants

Regardless of personal desires, history may repeat itself.

It will fail again

The likelihood of failure persists in subsequent attempts.

You're not compatible

Incompatibility is a fundamental issue in the relationship.

Get it into your skull

Understand and accept the reality of the situation.

It's better off this way

Accepting the end is preferable for both parties.

I know you're hurting now but don't let that tempt you

Despite pain, resist succumbing to emotions.

The rose tinted glasses that you wear just taint the truth

Relying on overly positive perspectives distorts reality.

It may take a while but trust in time

Believe in the healing power of time.

And it will heal the wounds

Wounds will eventually heal with the passage of time.

Let exes remain exes once it's through

After a relationship concludes, maintain the "ex" status.

People get comfortable in being miserable

People may become accustomed to misery, but don't fear solitude.

But don't you be afraid of being on your own

Embrace being alone; it is different from loneliness.

'Cause loneliness and being alone

Loneliness and solitude are distinct experiences.

Differ like night and day

Loneliness and being alone are as different as night and day.

I know you're hurting now but don't let that tempt you

Despite pain, resist succumbing to emotions.

The rose tinted glasses that you wear just taint the truth

Relying on overly positive perspectives distorts reality.

It'll take a while but trust in time

Time will reveal true colors; have patience.

True colours will show soon

The real nature of things will become apparent over time.

That exes should stay exes once you're through

After a relationship concludes, maintain the "ex" status.

Yeah exes must stay exes once you're through

It is essential for exes to remain as such after the relationship ends.
