We got a two parter! For track 7, Billie is working her through a breakup and seemingly moving into the anger phase of grief. In the first part she tells her ex she lied when she called them "the love of my life." In part two, she's singing about karma.
What Does "L'Amour De Ma Vie" Mean?
For those of you not fluent in French, the phrase "l'amour de ma vie" translates to "the love of my life." This also happens to be the title of Luxembourg's Eurovision entry in 1986, but that song seems to have no connection to Eilish's song.

Billie Eilish "L'Amour De Ma Vie" Lyrics
[Part 1]
[Chorus]
I wish you the best for the rest of your life
Felt sorry for you when I looked in your eyes
But I need to confess, I told you a lie
I said you, you were the love of my life
The love of my life
[Verse 1]
Did I break your heart?
Did I waste your time?
I tried to be there for you
Then you tried to break mine
[Refrain]
It isn't asking for a lot for an apology
For making me feel like I killed you if I tried to leave
You said you'd never fall in love again because of me
Then you moved on immediately
[Chorus]
(Bum-bum-bum)
But I wish you the best for the rest of your life
Felt sorry for you when I looked in your eyes
But I need to confess
I told you a lie (Told you a lie)
When I said you (Said you, ooh), you (Ooh)
Were the love of my life
The love of my life
[Verse 2]
So you found her, now go fall in love (Go fall in love)
Just like we were if I ever wasIt's not my fault (No)
I did what I could (I did what I could)
You made it so hard
Like I knew you would
[Bridge]
Thought I was depressed or losing my mind
My stomach upset, almost all the time
But after I left, it was obvious why (Oh), mm
Because for you, you
I was the love of your life, mm
But you were not mine
[Refrain]
It isn't asking for a lot for an apology
For making me feel like I killed you if I tried to leave
You said you'd never fall in love again because of me
Then you moved on, then you moved on
Then you moved on, then you moved on
Then you moved on, then you moved on
[Part 2]
[Verse]
Ooh
You wanted to keep it
Like something you found
'Til you didn't need it
But you should've seen it
The way it went down
You wouldn't believe it
Wanna know when it's over
With your hand on my shoulder
You were so mediocre
And we're so glad it's over nowIt's over now
It's over now
It's over now
[Outro]
It's over
Karma killer
The girls all kill her
The girls all fear her
Mm, misery
It's such a pity
We're both so pretty
