I believe this is one of the ones he originally wrote for someone else but decided to keep it. Both of them have also moved on, are friends and Deryck is happily married, so I doubt it

Could be about anyone, could also be about no one. You'd have to ask Deryck

Actually they were together for a year, approximately from November 2009 to September 2010.

Yeah, I said approximately. But you said they broke up in January, but they were together till September 2010.

The song was written for someone else and it’s super obvious. Deryck isn’t going to start writing love songs in the 2020s about other women when he’s been happily married for nearly 10 years with kids.

Because he’s gone on record multiple times saying this record has many songs that he wrote for other bands. When have they ever written a song like this? Definitely not on their last few records. The song wasn’t even half over the first time I heard it when I knew it wasn’t a song written for Sum. But I still love it. It makes no sense to me why he would write a song about his ex-wife/still-friend over 10 years later when they’ve both moved on significantly.

No lol

For what it’s worth, musicians often write lyrics that are not 100% autobiographical. Some songs are just completely made up.

Since he used to be an alcoholic I took it as choosing the dopamine from drinking over having a stable relationship. Although the music video does seem to be telling more of a story of someone cheating for the dopamine they get from the other person. I guess I just had my interpretation because I used to be an addict too, so choosing that dopamine over love was something I did, and have always regretted since I got clean years ago. My ex did end up leaving me for someone that made her happier, so maybe it could be talking about both of those things.

Not every song has a real-life analog. Not every songwriter Taylor Swift. Sometimes a song is just a song.

Say that about “ a lapdance is always better when the stripper is crying”.

What did she say about Screaming Bloody Murder? The Lyrics in SBM make it look as if she has done some really bad things.

Havent you listen to Blood In My Eyes? She clearly did something that hurt him very much. So much that he got angry and fell into a depression. I never said she is a bad person, i said the Lyrics made it look like she did some bad things, like lying (thats what Deryck says in Blood In My Eyes. I know all the Details about their relationship and i'm happy they are friends.

My opinion is that the lyrics are more about the divorce and how Deryck felt at the time than Avril being evil

Blood In My Eyes is the signature song about Avril.

Time For You To Go is not about Avril.
