about

From the extraordinary music writing duo, Wittchen & Wittchen (Alex: lyrics, Sam: music). To all of our ex-boyfriends, yes, this song is about you.

lyrics

In a state of utter apathy
I stated that you weren’t for me.
Instead of letting it go on
It made more sense for us to not belong.

You pleaded and you shouted
But your thoughts, well, they were clouded.
You don’t seem to get what I do.
Because I know . . .

Chorus
Love doesn’t have to last forever
To impact a lifetime.
Short stories
Can mean as much as novels.

Even though we were doing just fine
I don’t want to be content
With a mediocre love.

We don’t seem to fit just quite right.
It’s not you so please let’s not fight.
Why continue with this charade?
Maybe I have issues
Or maybe you’re gay.

I hate to leave you while you’re so down
But there’s no way I’ll stick around.
You can’t see my P.O.V.
So I’m so sorry but I mean . . .

Chorus

Thanks for everything you did for me.
I enjoyed the dinner and the trip on the sea.
Money can’t fix this mess.
I don’t want this to work.
I’d say I’m sorry
But really I’m not.

So maybe I’ll find somebody new
And maybe I’ll find I miss you
But I’m willing to take that chance
Since this is such a joke of a romance.

You’re not nice and you’re not handsome,
Make me cry, not fun and quite dumb.
So hey these are my final words.
You never listen but now you’ll have heard.

Chorus
