Lyrics

You seemed to be the one for me

You appeared to be the ideal partner for me

You seemed to share all of my wants and needs

You seemed to understand and share my desires and necessities

You know

General acknowledgment or affirmation

You seemed like you perfect after all

You looked like the perfect person in every aspect

You seemed like you perfect after all

Reiteration of the belief that you appeared perfect

And I don't know if you don't see it, but

Expressing doubt about your awareness of your imperfections

I see right through your disguise

The speaker claims to see through your deceptive behavior

You know it ain't foolin' me

Acknowledging that the deception is not convincing

Or anyone after all

Asserting that the deception is evident to everyone

And baby it is not true

Denying the truth of the claim that the speaker can't live without you

That I can't see my self without you

Stating that the speaker can envision life without you

'Cause honestly I don't even bother anymore

Expressing a lack of interest and effort in the relationship

And girl you know its unfair

Noting the unfairness of your actions

For you to look at me and stand there

Highlighting your lack of effort and engagement

'Cause you know you never put in effort after all

Pointing out that you never invest effort in the relationship

And that's the last straw that I hold

Referring to a critical breaking point in the relationship

I could give a fuck about you

Expressing indifference or disregard towards you

You actin like all your lies are true

Accusing you of pretending that your lies are true

Like how you say you love me

Highlighting a contradiction in your statement of love

But after all, you just play me for my money

Accusing you of using the speaker for money

And that isn't the only lie I've caught you in

Implying that there are more lies that the speaker has discovered

To say for the least girl, I know just where yah' been

Suggesting familiarity with your questionable actions

And baby it is not true

Reiteration of the denial that the speaker can't live without you

That I can't see myself without you

Reaffirming the lack of interest and effort in the relationship

Cause honestly I don't even bother anymore

Repeating the sentiment of not bothering with the relationship

And girl you know its unfair

Reiterating the unfairness of your behavior

For you to look at me and stand there

Pointing out your passive stance in the relationship

Cause you know you never put in effort after all

Highlighting your consistent lack of effort

And that's the last straw that I hold

Referring to a final breaking point or limit

Girl you know its gotten old

Declaring that the situation has become tiresome

And honestly, all I can say is its over

Stating that the relationship is over

From this point on

Indicating a decisive moment from now on

I dont need you after all(I don't need you after all I said)

Affirming independence and not needing you anymore

I'm fine on my own(I don't need you after all I said)

Reiterating self-sufficiency and contentment alone

Doing things I know I can do

Engaging in activities within one's capabilities

Not pushing myself out of my comfort zone

Choosing not to step out of one's comfort zone

Cause I'm coastin' now

Expressing a state of ease or smooth progression
