Congratulations (Cover) Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1]
The singer feels hurt and abandoned because their ex doesn’t even answer their calls anymore. Instead of hearing their familiar voice, they only get cold, emotionless responses. They acknowledge that relationships have tough times, but instead of working through them, their ex quickly moved on to someone else as if looking for an easy way out.

[Pre-Chorus]
The singer took their ex’s words at face value when they said they needed time. They truly believed it meant taking a break and figuring things out, not an excuse to leave permanently.

[Chorus]
The singer sarcastically congratulates their ex for moving on so easily. They are shocked at how their ex acts like nothing happened, completely forgetting their past relationship. They feel betrayed because their ex made them believe there was still hope, only to crush them in the end. Now, the ex is happily smiling as if the singer never existed, leaving them feeling hurt and used.

[Verse 2]
The singer questions if the new person is better than them. They wonder if this person helped their ex erase all memories of their past relationship. They refuse to pretend they are okay with their ex’s happiness and reject the idea that they should wish them well. Instead, they express frustration, saying they don’t care anymore.

[Chorus]
Again, the singer sarcastically congratulates their ex for forgetting them so easily. They recall how their ex once asked for time to think but ended up leaving them behind. While the singer was stuck waiting, their ex moved on and found someone new. Now, it feels like their past relationship never even happened, making the pain even worse.
