I saw you smiling at her today

I saw you smiling at her today The way you looked at her—like I didn’t exist anyway I almost walked over, told you what I feel But I learned a new kind of love—one that cuts like steel I didn’t see you, thought you were just fine I thought I could move on, leave the past behind But every laugh I hear, every glance I take Reminds me of a mistake I can’t unmake Pre-Chorus: I’ll be everywhere you look In your favorite songs, in every little hook Every smile I give will cut a little deep Every memory of you I’ll never let sleep I’m the one you let go, now I’m the one you can’t forget The taste of me lingers, even when it’s your regret I’ll make you think of me when you’re half asleep Sweet revenge, but oh… it’s the kind you keep Love, fire, everything we lost Romance in the ruin, darling, we’re the cost I walk past your street, just to hear your laugh You don’t notice me—but I’ve got the last half Of every memory I tried to erase You’re in the cracks of my life I can’t replace I see your shadow in every café we knew And I feel the pull of the chaos and the truth I wanted you gone, but you’re still in my veins Sweet revenge is tender, like love with its pains I’ll smile at your friends, like nothing’s wrong But every little glance will remind you I’m strong I’ll haunt your dreams, but gently this time I’ll miss you more than my own pride allows I’m the one you let go, now I’m the one you can’t forget The taste of me lingers, even when it’s your regret I’ll make you think of me when you’re half asleep Sweet revenge, but oh… it’s the kind you keep Love, fire, everything we lost Romance in the ruin, darling, we’re the cost Maybe it’s cruel, maybe it’s true But I’ll never stop thinking of you I’ll dance in the ashes of what we used to be And I’ll remember the best and worst of me I’m the one you let go, now I’m the one you can’t forget The taste of me lingers, even when it’s your regret I’ll make you think of me when you’re half asleep Sweet revenge, but oh… it’s the kind you keep Love, fire, everything we lost Romance in the ruin, darling, we’re the cost
