Memory
Patent Pending Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This is the best that I can do.
This is me letting go
The last to know
Mistakes you can't undo
This is me burning photographs
This is me filling in the gaps
The last to see
The best of me is found
Everything about you
Is like a memory
It's like everything you said
You never said to me
Head in the clouds
It was love
I'd mistaken for falling down
I was holding onto something that
I thought could be
The greatest love song of the century
Left me alone to pick up
Every piece of the mess you made of me
You're the very worst part of me
This is you wishing it's not true
This is doing all that you can do
This is me walking out
Removing doubt
The things I never knew
This is how it feels to know you're wrong
This is understanding all along
This is all I have to know
I told you so
It comes and goes around
I miss the smell of alcohol
And falling apart
And now I'm patient
Waiting for your call
Is breaking my heart
Now it's losing its appeal
How always think it's weird how I worry
'cause I worry
And I've been known to judge
A person by their matter of fact
But don't you bother with equations
'cause I'm finished with that
Like how me minus you equals me completely
(me minus you equals me completely [x4])
You're the very worst part of me.

I can no longer truly connect with who you are
It's like everything you said
I can't help but think about the things you've said to me
You never said to me
But it turns out, I was never really on your mind
Head in the clouds
I was lost in the fantasy of what our relationship could be
It was love
I thought what we had was love, but I was wrong
I'd mistaken for falling down
I thought I was falling in love, but instead you brought me down

You reap what you sow
I miss the smell of alcohol
I am struggling with the pain of our breakup
And falling apart
I am barely holding myself together
And now I'm patient
I am waiting for the pain to pass
Waiting for your call
Hoping that you'll come back, but knowing that you won't
Is breaking my heart
This hope is causing me more pain
Now it's losing its appeal
This hope is starting to fade away
How always think it's weird how I worry
I am worried about the future yet I struggle to let go of the past
'cause I worry
My anxiety and fear is consuming me
And I've been known to judge
I have a tendency to be judgmental towards others
A person by their matter of fact
I make assumptions about people based on their actions
But don't you bother with equations
Don't try to calculate my emotions or actions
'cause I'm finished with that
I am moving towards a future without you
Like how me minus you equals me completely
I am complete within myself, I don't need you to define me
(me minus you equals me completely [x4])
You're the very worst part of me.
I realize now that you have brought out the worst in me and I am better off without you
