Lyrics
It’s funny how we used to be like a blossom rose now we’re dying, and every petal that’s falling
Reflecting on the contrast between a once beautiful relationship ("blossom rose") now deteriorating, with each falling petal symbolizing a loss.
We’ll soon amount to nothing
Expressing a belief that the relationship will lead to nothing substantial.
It was you who had broke my spine, but honestly I’m fine we were just a failure by design
Acknowledging the impact of a past breakup but indicating personal resilience and acceptance of the relationship's failure.
That just was hanging by a thread
Describing the fragility of the relationship, hanging by a thread.
Seconds till we reach the bitter end
Counting down to an inevitable and bitter end of the relationship.
And now that rose is dead
Confirming the end of the once vibrant relationship ("now that rose is dead").
Let’s not pretend that we’ll be just friends
Rejecting the idea of maintaining a platonic friendship after the romantic relationship has ended.
I wasted my time
Expressing a feeling of time wasted in the failed relationship.
All I did was wasted my time
Reiterating the sentiment of time being wasted in the relationship.
And I just wasted my time
Reinforcing the theme of time being squandered in the failed relationship.
So thanks to you I’m gonna do the things I want to do, cause you, you broke my heart so now we’re through
Declaring independence and a determination to pursue personal desires after the heartbreak.
And I hope you’ll always miss me now that you see I’m happy
Expressing a hope that the ex-partner will realize the singer's newfound happiness.
And you’ll have that curiosity if an apology would bring you back to me
Speculating on the ex-partner's curiosity about whether an apology could reconcile the relationship.
But you will never know how I feel inside
Emphasizing that the ex-partner will never understand the singer's internal emotions.
So why even try
Questioning the point of attempting to convey those emotions to the ex-partner.
You’re always throwing around my name pointing fingers thinking I’m to blame
Addressing false accusations and blame-shifting by the ex-partner.
But if you knew a thing about dancing, it takes two to tango you should try to quit acting
Using a metaphor ("it takes two to tango") to highlight the shared responsibility in a relationship and advising the ex-partner to stop acting accusatory.
I wasted my time
Repeating the feeling of time being wasted in the relationship.
All I did was wasted my time
Reiterating the sentiment of time being squandered in the failed relationship.
And I just wasted my time
Reinforcing the theme of time being wasted in the failed relationship.
So thanks to you I’m gonna do the things I want to do, cause you, you broke my heart so now we’re through
Repeating the declaration of independence and pursuit of personal desires after the heartbreak.
And I hope you’ll always miss me now that you see I’m happy
Reiterating a hope that the ex-partner will observe the singer's happiness.
And you’ll have that curiosity if an apology would bring you back to me
Speculating on the ex-partner's curiosity about whether an apology could reconcile the relationship.
Where did I go wrong? You knew this all along
Pondering where things went wrong and asserting that the ex-partner was aware of the issues.
I’ll sing it through this song to prove that you were wrong
Committing to express the sense of wrongdoing through the medium of the song.
Where did I go wrong? You knew this all along
Repeating the commitment to convey the sense of wrongdoing through the song.
I’ll sing it through this song to prove that you were wrong

And I hope you’ll always miss me now that you see I’m happy
Reiterating a hope that the ex-partner will observe the singer's happiness.
And you’ll have that curiosity if an apology would bring you back to me
Speculating on the ex-partner's curiosity about whether an apology could reconcile the relationship.
And I’m lying to myself to be happy now
Admitting to self-deception in order to maintain a facade of happiness.
I’m lying to myself to be happy now
Repeating the admission of self-deception to maintain a facade of happiness.
I’m lying to myself to be happy now
Continuing to admit to self-deception to maintain a facade of happiness.
I’m lying to myself to be happy
Persisting in self-deception for the sake of appearing happy.
