Bitter Memory

I thought I told you I don’t want us anymore
I though I showed you I was closing off that door
So you would know for sure
We’d stay a bitter memory
That I would happily ignore

You don’t have to write me just to say hello
You don’t need reminders of what you already know
Did you fail to hear
When I made it clear to you and for myself
I’ve had enough of hell for one life

I don’t care if you’re alone and losing friends
I don’t buy your empty attempts to make amends
Haven’t you moved on
And found another sap to wrap your life around
And drag him through the ground
Was I somehow supposed to know
That months from then you’d still not let go

I’m doing fine
Living alonе, working late at night
I’m a bit surprised to hear from you
I thought I madе this clear to you
I’m not trying to be mean
I’m doing this for me
I meant each word I said before
I don’t want you in my life anymore

Come on over we could hang out for a while
It’d be nice to hear your voice and see your smile
If it gets too late
There is plenty of space to crash here for the night
You know it’d be alright
I’m only here for three more days
And I am not afraid to make mistakes

Couldn’t you have let me know
That years from then I’d still not let go
