Cover art for My Leftovers lyrics by Porcelain and the Tramps

this kinda happened to me and it's.. how i feel.. so that's why i see this as a girl talking to her old friend, but it could be just any girl that is jealous of her. she's laughing because the girl's gone after her ex.

she tries SOOOO hard to copy the girl. it's ridiculous to think she'd care since she let the guy go!.. yet this girl still tries- the old friend does everything she can think of, but she's really desperate, so she can't keep a guy. she's the one under all the stress, frantically trying to keep up with the girl speaking, but the girl speaking doesn't give a shit about either of them and knows that she's still doin better than the old friend, especially since it's obvious in the way the girl is so jealous of her life.. and she knows she can do much better than this old bf.

maybe that's a confusing explanation... but that's 'what this song means to me'.
