The poem reflects on a past relationship that has ended, with the speaker struggling to understand why the other person lied and went back on their word when they had promised things would be alright. The speaker is trying to forget the hurtful things that were said and done when the relationship fell apart, but still remembers their final goodbye and the bitterness that remains.
2. I still remember when you were
on my side
You swore to me we would be
alright
Why did you lie?
3. Do you remember the songs wed
listen to
Daughtry singing theres no life
after you?
What did you do?
4. Now Im trying to forget
The things you shouldnt have said
The line you shouldnt have
crossed
The love you shouldnt have lost
5. And I dont know what Ive done
to you
I cant rebuild the bridge you
burned
I tried to find the words to say
to you
But there were too many tables
turned
So, go on and play our song
6. I still taste the bitterness of you
When you condemned me for the
things I didnt do
Just what you thought they knew
7. You contradicted everything that
you stood for
Just to feel as though you
needed something more
Do what you do, ignore
8. I dont know how I could let
Myself say you were Heaven sent
And cause I wasnt perfect
Think, somehow, I deserved it
9. And I dont know what Ive done
to you
I cant rebuild the bridge you
burned
I tried to find the words to say
to you
But there were too many tables
turned
So, go on and play our song
10. I dont know what my story is
I cant explain how insane I feel to
have
No records of a past
Just the memory of an end
11. And I dont know what Ive done
to you
I cant rebuild the bridge you
burned
I tried to find the words to say
to you
But there were too many tables
turned
So, go on and play our song
