Lyrics
I thought I saw you walking past my kitchen door
The narrator observes someone walking past their kitchen door.
I thought i said i didn't want you anymore
The narrator previously communicated a desire to end the relationship.
I tried to stop you
Attempt to prevent the person from leaving.
I tried to reason with you
Trying to use logic or persuasion to explain the decision.
I tried to fight you
Trying to resist or oppose the departure.
I tried to love you
Attempting to express love amid difficulties.
but all I ended up was strung out and fucked up on the floor
The result is feeling emotionally drained and defeated on the floor.
I thought i said i didn't want you anymore
Reiterating the previous declaration of not wanting the person.
I left a note posted on the kitchen door

I tried to stop you
Attempting once more to prevent the person from leaving.
I tried to reason with you

I tried to love you
Expressing love despite the difficulties.
but all i ended up was strung out and fucked up on the floor

Now I wanna be rid of you

Cause now I know

It's all for show
Understanding that the person's actions are merely for show.
To see how much your fame could grow
