Bittersweet Memories Lyrics

You turn me off at the push of a button
and you pretend that I don't mean nothing
I'm not a saint, that's easy to tell
but guess what honey? You ain't no angel

You like to scream, use words as a weapon
Well go ahead, take your best shot, woman
I want to leave you, it's easy to see
but guess what honey? It's not that easy

We get so complicated
This finger's for our memories

So rip my pictures from your wall,
tear them down and burn them all
Light the fire and walk away,
there's nothing left to say

So take the ashes from the floor,
bury them to just make sure
that nothing more is left of me
Just bittersweet memories

I wanna run and escape from your prison
but when I leave I feel something is missing
I'm not afraid, that's easy to tell
This can't be heaven, it feels like I'm in hell

You're like the drug that I can't stop taking
I want more and I can't stop craving
I still want you, it's easy to see,
but guess what honey? You're not that good for me

We get so complicated
This finger's for our memories

So rip my pictures from your wall,
tear them down and burn them all
Light the fire and walk away,
there's nothing left to say

So take the ashes from the floor,
bury them to just make sure
that nothing more is left of me
Just bittersweet memories
Just bittersweet memories

We get so complicated
This finger's for our memories
We get so complicated

So rip my pictures from your wall,
tear them down and burn them all
Light the fire and walk away,
there's nothing left to say

So take the ashes from the floor,
bury them to just make sure
that nothing more is left of me
Just bittersweet memories

There's nothing left to say
There's nothing left to say

Holy Shit. I cant believe i'm the first to comment on this... Its a good song. I think its about him and a girl breaking up. It was a messy breakup, and as a result left him with some emotional damage. He wants her to have nothing left of him.

Lol at the beginning of that comment.

Anyway, I agree with the messy breakup etc but I think its more to do with the fact the chick just ignores him after all of it and moves on, cos at the start he says 'You turn me off like the push of a button'. [:

Personally, I think there are two different meanings behind it. Many only see the obvious. Some, like myself, dig deeper. The obvious would be about a loved one but if you pay attention to the video, Matthew Tuck shows the other meaning. I believe it's also about a parent; a mother to be exact. I think it could be a person's pure hatred for their mother and finally being able to build up the courage to tell their mother to leave them alone. But then again, that's my personal opinion.

It's actuallly "this finger's for our memories," not "this thing is full of memories."
