Meaning of the song

The name ‘Sophia’ that is used in the song has been used as a symbolism for a person one could be in a relationship with, who poisons the relationship with his/her’s lies, cheating etc. The band has stated that they could have easily used any other name (such as ‘Olivia’) and that it’s not a dig at any particular Sophia.

“P.S. I Hate You is about a toxic relationship, it’s about having someone in your life for way too long and really… when that person goes, you’re like ‘Wow! Thank God! This is so much better without you!’ […] Everybody’s got a person like that in their lives.”

– Jeff Stinco –

“You know where we got the name Sophia from? We were looking for a name that would sound well on the song and my daughter watches this show called ‘Sophia The Princess’…”

– Pierre Bouvier –

Song lyrics


Dear Sophia
I think I’m better off without you!

Like a polaroid picture
I can still see you in my mind
In your Def Leppard t-shirt
I said I was yours
You said you were mine
We started a fire
A fire like no-one’s ever seen before
There was something about you
There was something about you

But then you beat my heart up
Left it black and blue
Now I wish I never met you

Dear Sophia
I think I’m better off without you!
I kinda miss ya
Making out all night
Like we used to
We were good together
But now the things you’ve done we can’t undo
So don’t write me back
P.S. I hate you

You can spare me the fake tears
We don’t even need one last goodbye
I’ll see you in 10 years
Or maybe we should make that 45
My darling, it’s over
And now the fairytale is up in flames
I hope he was worth it
Yeah, I hope he was worth it

And if there’s one thing in this life I know it’s true
It’s that I wish I never met you

Dear Sophia
I think I’m better off without you!
I kinda miss ya
Making out all night like we used to
We were good together
But now the things you’ve done we can’t undo
So don’t write me back
P.S. I hate you

I hope one day you’ll fall in love with someone new
Just when you think it’s true
He breaks your heart in two
Just like you did to me
Just like you did to me

Dear Sophia
I think I’m better off without you!
I kinda miss ya
Making out all night like we used to
We were good together
But now the things you’ve done we can’t undo
So don’t write me back
P.S. I hate you
P.S. I hate you

(Dear Sophia)
So don’t write me back
P.S. I hate you
(Dear Sophia)
P.S. I hate you
(Dear Sophia)
Don’t write me back
P.S. I hate you
