painful memories

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
