Lyrics
Verse 1
You said forever like it was a trend
Loved me loud, then left in the end
Told your friends it was all a phase
Now I’m just smoke you can’t erase
Pre-Chorus
I gave you time, I gave you trust
Now look at us, just ruined dust
Chorus
We used to mean something
Now we don’t mean a thing
You turned my name into a warning
Treated love like a fling
I held on, but you let go
Now I walk this road alone
We used to mean something
Now I don’t pick up the phone
Verse 2
I see your name, but I don’t feel
Anything I used to—this is real
You took the best and left me bare
But I got stronger while you weren’t there
Pre-Chorus
You made me small, you played me blind
But I see clearer every time
Chorus
We used to mean something
Now we don’t mean a thing
You turned my name into a warning
Treated love like a fling
I held on, but you let go
Now I walk this road alone
We used to mean something
Now I don’t pick up the phone
Bridge
I don’t cry like I used to
You don’t haunt like you want to
Thought you’d break me in the silence
But I learned to find peace in defiance
Final Chorus
We used to mean something
Now we don’t mean a thing
I’m not bitter, just becoming
Someone you can’t unsee
I stood tall while you fell short
Now I’m closing every door
We used to mean something
But I don’t feel that anymore
