Dear A

This is a song about a past relationship that has ended. The singer reflects on the time they spent with their partner "A," who they now see as having treated them poorly and replaced them. The singer acknowledges that they held themselves back in the relationship and allowed themselves to be treated poorly, but now they see the situation clearly and are moving on. The chorus repeats the refrain "Dear A, I get it now that you walked away," indicating the singer's newfound understanding of the relationship and their ability to move on. The bridge emphasizes the singer's newfound independence, saying that they don't need their former partner anymore and that they're doing better without them. The song ends with the sarcastic comment "so much for best friend."


Verse 1
long were the days
when youvwould just vanish away
and I’d ask myself everyday
if I was the one to blame
always telling me my dreams didn’t matter anyway
and I lived in your games
while you set the rules in your own ways

Pre Chorus
and whenever you called
i’d crawl back to you
leaving all of my dreams
just to be with you
and I held my self back
cause you were all that i had

Chorus
dear A, I get it now that you walked away
I was something that you could erase and replace
I bet you love that my heart aches

Verse 2
maybe I, I should’ve seen the signs
now they all come back in a flash of a light
If I opposed you you’d just push me aside
oh it hurts cause I was tryna make you feel alright

Pre Chorus
and I wish I could find
the perfect rhryme
when someone questions
why you left me behind
but I can’t oh I can’t

Chorus
dear A, I get it now that you walked away
I was something that you could erase and replace
dear A, how could you treat me this way?
oh look what we became
strangers but you know my name

Bridge
and it’s no forbidden letter you push everyone away
telling one and all we’re the ones to blame
I should’ve listened when the ones you burned told me to run
cause you did to them the same thing for fun
oh no
and i’ve let myself drown
now I’m doing better you’re not around
I don’t need you anymore
cause you never gave a damn before

oh oh oh
yeah yeah yeah
no no no

Chorus
dear A, I get it now that you walked away
I was something that you could erase and replace
dear A, how could you treat me this way?
oh look what we became
strangers but you know my name


oh oh oh

so much for best friend
