Lyrics

I can still smell your perfume

I still remember the scent of your perfume.

I still have pictures in my phone of you

I have images of you stored in my phone.

I still have the letters that you gave me

I've kept the letters you gave me.

I still think about I you when wear beanies

Thinking about you, especially when you wear beanies.

You've been doing really and I think that's great

You've been doing well, and I acknowledge and appreciate that.

I'm happy for you and you're life without me

I am genuinely happy for your life without me.

I still die everyday with my broken heart

Every day, I experience emotional pain due to my broken heart.

But it's worth it cause your happy when we're apart

The pain is worth it because you are happy when we are not together.


But what, we had is gone, burn it all, send it off, and lose control

Reflecting on the fact that what we had is over, suggesting a desire to let go and move on.

What we had is gone, burn it all, send it off, let it go

Reiterating the theme of letting go and burning bridges to move forward.


And I know I let you down almost all the time

Acknowledging personal shortcomings and expressing remorse for letting the other person down.

I was an asshole and it wasn't right

Recognizing past mistakes, specifically admitting to being insensitive and regrettable behavior.

You gave me everything that I needed

Acknowledging the generosity and completeness of what the other person provided in the relationship.

And I thought I'd get away with leaving

Admitting to the expectation of getting away with leaving, suggesting a lack of foresight.

And these days I regret the past

Expressing regret for the choices made in the past.

I mourn the days that you and laughed

Mourning the joyful moments shared in the past with the other person.

Being really fucking dumb and talking bout our days

Reflecting on past foolishness and conversations about shared experiences.

Boy I really did have everything

Realizing the richness of life experienced when the relationship was intact.


But what, we had is gone, burn it all, send it off, and lose control

Repeating the theme of letting go and losing control over the past.

What we had is gone, burn it all, send it off, let it go

Reiterating the desire to burn bridges and let go of the past.


But what, we had is gone, burn it all, send it off, and lose control

Emphasizing the need to let go and lose control over what is no longer part of the present.

What we had is gone, burn it all, send it off, let it go

Repeating the idea of burning the past and letting it go.
