new and improved

(アルバム： ELIO'S INFERNO - 2022)

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

We're not together
But I'm keeping all your love letters

You got me better
New and improved for the next one
And I'm not gonna retire
There's so much left for me to design
'Cause you left me inspired

Now I'm alone but so much older
I kind of wish it wasn't over

When we would laugh till it hurts, or forget the words as we'd sing to 'state of grace'
And yeah, I'm thinking about a time when we weren't stuck
Fixing up my hair as I tear up

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

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 you're 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
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 that shoe to fit
Procrastinating the end

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

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