​new and improved

[Verse 1]
What if we're just too damn different
To make a mutual decision? No, no
We never turned it around or figured it out
But you gave me something great
And, yeah, I tried to get better for someone
Fixed my mental health 'cause I fell in love

[Chorus]
We're not together
But I'm keeping all your love letters
You can be better
New and improved for the next one
And I'm not gonna retire
There's so much left for me to decide
'Cause you left me inspired (Oh)

[Verse 2]
Now I'm alone but so much older
I kind of wish it wasn't over, oh yeah
And we would laugh till it hurts then forget the words
As we'd sing to "State of Grace"
And, yeah, I'm thinking 'bout a time when we weren't stuck
Fixing up my hair as I tear up

[Chorus]
We're not together
But I'm keeping all your love letters
You can be better
New and improved for the next one
And I'm not gonna retire
There's so much left for me to decide
'Cause you left me inspired

[Bridge]
I stick a knife to the mirror
'Cause my reflection's so sore
I change my mind like the weather
I'm like Canadian fall
And even if I could cry for someone
I still wouldn't feel nothing at all
And even if you were mine for real
I still wouldn't feel like we belong
So by now, you should've made all of this make sense
But your friends have always made me feel like I'm less
There's nothing wrong with accepting what it is
But there's nothing better than getting over it
And you wait because you've got some kind of complex
And I'm drained because I'm always playing defense
There's nothing harder than forcing the shoe to fit
But there's nothing better than getting over it
So maybe I should get over it
Stop forcing the shoe to fit
Procrastinating the end

[Chorus]
We're not together
But I'm keeping all your love letters
You can be better
New and improved for the next one
And I'm not gonna retire
There's so much left for me to decide
'Cause you left me inspired

[Outro]
I'd turn back time just to figure out what exactly went wrong
