Bittersweet Memories
Bullet for My Valentine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And you pretend that I don't mean nothing
I'm not a saint, that's easy to tell
But guess what honey? you ain't no angel
You like to scream use words as a weapon
Well go ahead take your best shot woman
I wanna leave you, it's easy to see
But guess what honey it's not that easy
We get so complicated (complicated)
This finger's for our memories
So rip my pictures from your wall
Tear them down, and burn them all
Light the fire and walk away
There's nothing left to say, so
Take the ashes from the floor
Bury them to just make sure
That nothing more is left of me
Just bittersweet memories
I wanna run and escape from your prison,
But when I leave I feel something is missing.
I'm not afraid that's easy to tell,
This can't be heaven,
It feels like I'm in hell.
You're like a drug that I can't stop taking,
I want more and I can't stop craving.
I still want you it's easy to see,
But guess what honey?
You're not that good for me.
We get so complicated (complicated),
This finger's for our memories.
So rip my pictures from your wall,
Tear them down, and burn them all.
Light the fire and walk away,
There's nothing left to say, so,
Take the ashes from the floor,
Bury them to just make sure,
That nothing more is left of me,
Just bittersweet memories.
Just bittersweet memories.
We get so complicated (complicated),
This finger's for our memories.
We get so complicated.
So rip my pictures from your wall,
Tear them down, and burn them all.
Light the fire and walk away,
There's nothing left to say, so,
Take the ashes from the floor,
Bury them to just make sure,
That nothing more is left of me,
Just bittersweet memories.
There's nothing left to say.
There's nothing left to say.
In Bullet for My Valentine's song Bittersweet Memories, the lyrics talk about the bitter and sweet memories of a failed relationship. The singer is frustrated with their partner, who turns them off with the push of a button and uses words as a weapon. However, despite wanting to leave, the singer feels trapped and addicted to their partner like a drug they can't stop taking. It's clear that the relationship has become complicated and toxic, but the singer still cherishes the memories they shared together, even though they're just bittersweet.
The imagery of tearing down pictures and burning them all represents the need to destroy the physical reminders of this failed relationship. The singer encourages their partner to take the ashes from the floor and bury them, as if it's necessary to bury the past and move on. Ultimately, the song is about the struggle of letting go of something that was once meaningful, despite the pain it's causing.
Overall, Bittersweet Memories is a powerful representation of a complicated relationship and the mixed emotions that come with letting go of someone you used to love.

You turn me off at the push of a button
You easily dismiss me as if I were just a machine
And you pretend that I don't mean nothing
You act as if I'm insignificant and my feelings don't matter
I'm not a saint, that's easy to tell
I'm not a perfect person, and my flaws are obvious
But guess what honey? you ain't no angel
But let me tell you, you're not perfect either
You like to scream use words as a weapon
You enjoy hurting me with your words and making me feel small
Well go ahead take your best shot woman
Do your worst, but I won't back down
I wanna leave you, it's easy to see
I want to end this relationship and move on
But guess what honey it's not that easy
But it's not as simple as just walking away
We get so complicated (complicated)
Our relationship is complex and difficult
This finger's for our memories
This gesture is a tribute to our past experiences together
So rip my pictures from your wall

I'm unafraid to stand up to you and speak my truth
This can't be heaven,It feels like I'm in hell
This relationship is far from perfect and is causing me pain
You're like a drug that I can't stop taking
I'm addicted to you and I can't quit you easily
I want more and I can't stop craving
Despite everything, I still want more of what you have to offer
I still want you it's easy to see
My feelings for you are still strong and apparent
But guess what honey?You're not that good for me
But let me tell you, being with you is not healthy or beneficial for me
There's nothing left to say
There's nothing else to discuss or talk about
There's nothing left to say.
There's absolutely no need for further communication
