Upgraded (Reimagined)

[Verse 1]

Three years this august, since the day our love was discarded

Picture me stick-thin, sitting in a restaurant

With a coward who couldn't call it

Sushi on Smith Street, was debuting a new pair of flare jeans

When I spoke the words that you wouldn't say aloud

But you were clearly thinking in each given moment

[Pre-Chorus 1]

There's no way to know if I need to let you go

'Til we try being alone and embrace it

So we shared a bottle of red

Book-ended us in your bed

I didn't know it then, but let's face it

[Chorus]

Now I'm the name you're never escaping

Turn up your go-to radio station

Your ex lover's indie pop song's playing

She's upgrading, she's upgrading

You're taking off, I'm taking a plane then

Turn up your go-to radio station

Your ex lover, honey-blonde Australian

Is upgrading

[Verse 2]

I was in Paris, solo and no longer in hysterics

Picture me at peace, colour back in my cheeks

I was processing all of the trauma

Travelled into Spain and then

When at a bar with old and new friends

I sought out a man that would later on take me home

It's too bad he practically was your clone

[Pre-Chorus 2]

There's no way to know if I need to let you go

'Til we try out moving on like we mean it

So he kissed me on his couch, reminded me there are other mouths

Didn't know it then 'til I leaned in

[Chorus]

Now I'm the name you're never escaping

Turn up your go-to radio station

Your ex lover's indie pop song's playing

She's upgrading, she's upgrading

You're taking off, I'm taking a plane then

Turn up your go-to radio station

Your ex lover, honey-blonde Australian

Is upgrading, she's upgrading

[Pre-Chorus 2]

There's no way to know if I need to let you go

'Til we try being alone and embrace it

Though I hated it when it was said, I'm forever in your debt

'Cause I didn't know it then, but let's face it

[Chorus]

Now I'm the name you're never escaping

Turn up your go-to radio station

Your ex lover's indie pop song's playing

She's upgrading, she's upgrading

You're taking off, I'm taking a plane then

Turn up your go-to radio station

Your ex lover, honey-blonde Australian

Has upgraded, she's upgraded

She's upgraded

Upgraded
