painful memories Lyrics

Blue eyes, curly brown hair

I was seventeen

Took me on a chase and almost stole a kiss

But it never meant a thing

Gave me hope

Said some shit like "somewhere down the road"

Left me clinging to a dream

Thought I'd rule in your favor if you tried three years later

Oh, the irony

'Cause you, oh you

Yeah, you were one of the ones who broke me

Though these things were meant to be

They're still my most painful memories

Black frames, baggy jeans

I was nineteen

Put me on a throne and let me cling to you

But it never meant a thing

You never failed to disappoint me and let me down

I kept running back to you

You were magnetic and I was just pathetic

To deal with what you put me through

'Cause you, oh you

Yeah, you were one of the ones who broke me

Though these things were meant to be

They're still my most painful

Party boy, velvet voice

I was twenty

You were the rush I needed in my life

Then we lost everything

You became a ghost and silence was our new sound

You ran my river dry

Kept me waiting 'round instead of easily letting me down

And I still don't know why

'Cause you, oh you

Yeah, you were one of the ones who broke me

Though these things were meant to be

They're still my most painful memories

Though I've moved on and I'm finally happy

They're still my most painful memories
