Vinegar
Anna Abreu Lyrics

You don't know what it's like to be with you
I am having trouble understanding myself when I'm around you

I need some time to think so let me be
I require time to ponder my feelings and need space

I got to tell you what I'm going through
I must let you know how I feel

The writing's on the wall now can't you see
The evidence of my emotions is clear as day, you just won't acknowledge it

Got to breathe
I need to take deep breaths to stay calm

My apologies
I am sorry for what I'm about to say or do

You can't get it right with me so I just gotta go
Our relationship will never improve, so I must end it

Disbelief
I am in a state of shock

And constant grief
I am continuously saddened

Sour aftertaste was all I ever came to know
I never experienced anything positive with you, only bitterness

When I smile, you're the tears
My happiness is always ruined by you

I can't make them stop
I cannot stop crying over you

When I try to connect
When I attempt to bond with you

You will always block
You always prevent me from forming a connection with you

And you curdle my cream
You ruin any positivity I have

Like a lemon drop
Like sour candy

Don't you know
Are you not aware

You're vinegar in my dreams
You ruin my dreams and aspirations

You're the dirt in my eye
You obstruct my vision

When I try to see
When I attempt to view things clearly

You're the smoke in my lungs
You affect me negatively, like second-hand smoke

When I try to breathe
When I try to inhale clearly

And you're the disorder
You cause disorder in my life

When I need sleep
When I require rest

You may be right, I may have been a fool, but
You could be correct, I may have been naïve

Those days are gone and now you're history
Our time together has ended, and I've moved on

You think you're dope, but boy, you're far from cool
You believe you're impressive, but you're not

Just like a discord in a symphony
You are like an unpleasant sound in an overall beautiful composition

Like the rain
Similar to rainfall

Washing down the drain
Falling down the drain

Don't you realize a thing like this will not sustain
You need to acknowledge that this situation will not last

And it's not a shame
It isn't regrettable

'Cause you're just a stain
Because you are only a mark left behind

You should know that in the end the song remains the same
You must realize that things will not change, and our story is over

You can't bring me down now it's too late
You cannot affect my emotions now, it's too late for that

No more tears and no more hearts to break
I am no longer sad, and you cannot hurt me anymore
