I wrote this not necessarily from a personal experience, I've never been in a relationship so I've never had any exes but I could slightly relate. It's kind of a popish/country/Taylor Swift vibe song. So I thought Little Big Town would be the best choice for this song. So since this is a song about an Ex and written for Little Big Town, you could guess who this one's for.

"Ex"

Verse
You call for me
I turned in the key
You're far from me
And you know I'm not what you need

I heard your voice
You filled the void
But I have no choice
You lost me in the noise

Sorry it had to end this way
But you know damn well you'll be ok
Maybe I should have never stayed
But I know damn well how things have changed

Chorus
Ex, you were all wrong
This ain't no song for you

Ex, you were long gone
So you can bet I moved on too

Long lives the love we gave
Forever I'll be changed

But Ex, you were all wrong
This song ain't just for you
Bitch, this one's for me

You could live your life / just let me live mine
You could leave your things / but imma take mine
You could live your life / just let me live mine

Ex, you was a mess, so let me find another

Verse
You called for me
But I watched you leave
That night you told me
I'm not what you need

You heard my voice
You said I filled the void
But you have no choice
I lost you to the noise

Sorry it had to end this way
But you know damn well you'll be ok
Maybe I should have never stayed
But I know damn well I have changed

Chorus
Ex, you were all wrong
This ain't no song for you

Ex, you were long gone
So you can bet I moved on too

Long lives the love we gave
Forever and always

But Ex you were all wrong
This song ain't just for you
Bitch, it's for me

You could live your life / just let me live mine
You could leave your things / just let me take mine
You could live your life / just let me live mine

Ex, you was a mess, so let me find another

Bridge
You were my all
Everything
I'd ever need

But after all
Everything
Turned to nothing

So Ima X you out
Just take the exit now
Baby you teared me down
So I won't turn back now

Chorus
Ex, you were all wrong
This ain't no song for you

Ex, you were long gone
So you can bet I moved on too

You left me with hate crime
I can't waste time
But it's clear we have I see

Ex, you were all wrong
This song ain't just for you
This one's for me

You could live your life / just let me live mine
You could leave your things / just let me take mine
You could live your life / just let me live mine

Ex, you was a mess so let me find another.
