Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The one stain on my shirt I can never wash out
I lost faith from the way you filled me with doubt
c disgrace you're a bad taste
I loved you like a 90's trend
Haunt my brain forever, if only for the pleasure
Shattered me to pieces when you told me,
I gave you all my trust
Then you fucked me up
I never thought you for a player
c cold hearted traitor
You pushed my limits
Broke my soul
cnd all I wanna do is let you go
You're the bad taste that I can't get out of my mouth
The one stain on my shirt I can never wash out
I lost faith from the way you filled me with doubt
c disgrace you're a bad taste
My heart broke like a heart attack
