Navigating the aftermath of a breakup, FLETCHER explores the lingering pain and unresolved emotions that follow the end of a significant relationship. The lyrics convey a sense of longing and reflection as she questions why she remains fixated on past memories and feelings. Despite the hurt, there's an acknowledgment of the bittersweet nature of these emotions—how they serve as a reminder of what once was. The recurring theme of "sting" symbolizes both emotional pain and a deep connection to her former partner. Ultimately, FLETCHER grapples with whether it's better to hold onto this pain as it validates the significance of their past love or to move forward and let go.
Sting
Lyrics
Xo, do you ever miss me?
You chose brand new over history
That's cold, guess we're fifty-fifty
Don't you wish I was your girlfriend still?
Tough luck, we were in a bad place
Fucked up, made a couple sex tapes
All love, whenever I hear your name
Don't you wish it worked out and we were on again?
'Cause I still feel you right here every now and then
And it hits me like a missile in my heart again
Don't you start again, in my heart again
Honestly, all I wanna know, why does it sting?
Why am I still hung up on things?
Are you gonna give that diamond ring
That's meant for me to her?
But maybe I like the way it sting
It's all I got left of you and me
I'd rather it keep on cutting deeper
Show what we were worth (I always thought that we were)
Hello, do you ever rewind?
I've been hurting from the goodbye
Feelings, do they ever die?
I wish we were on again
'Cause I still feel you right here every now and then
And it hits me like a missile in my heart again
Don't you start again, in my heart again
Honestly, all I wanna know, why does it sting?
Why am I still hung up on things?
Are you gonna give that diamond ring
That's meant for me to her?
But maybe I like the way it sting
It's all I got left of you and me
I'd rather it keep on cutting deeper
Show what we were worth
How much longer will it sting?
How much longer will it sting?
Tell me what if could start clean
With no hard feelings between us
Could we ever be? Could we ever be?
Tell me what if we could go back and take it all back
Would you ever do that with me? Do that with me?
Sting, why am I still hung up on things?
Are you gonna give that diamond ring
That's meant for me to her?
But maybe I like the way it sting
It's all I got left of you and me
I'd rather it keep on cutting deeper
Show what we were worth
