Rid Of Me
Love's Departure: The Painful Unraveling
Lyrics
Tell me did you ever mean it
The speaker questions the sincerity of a past statement.
You said I was the one for you
Recollection of being told they were the chosen partner.
I was the one for you yeah
Confirmation of being the chosen one.
We're you hoping I didn't hear it?
Speculation about whether the message was meant to be overheard.
Cuz it's all that got me through
Indicating the significance of the statement for the speaker.
Its all that got me through yeah
Reiteration of the statement's importance.
And maybe it's my fault
Assuming responsibility or blame for the situation.
I shouldn't have believed
Regret for believing in something.
Every single late at night
Recollection of repeated declarations of love at night.
I love you said
Quoting a declaration of love.
I guess I should have seen
Realization of a missed indication or sign.
If we're through
Acceptance that the relationship might be over.
Then I'll leave
Expressing the intention to depart from the situation.
And you'll be rid of me
Recognition of being a burden to the other person.
I loved you
Confirmation of past love.
And I can see
Acknowledging a realization about the situation.
That you won't even miss me
Belief that they won't be missed by the other person.
Just tell me now I need to hear it
Requesting closure through honesty.
It's the least that you could do
Expressing proximity and a desire for acknowledgment.
I'm right here in front of you yeah
Asserting presence and readiness to face the truth.
Look me in the eyes and scream it
Demanding an honest reaction or response.
It's nothing I haven't been through
Implying resilience due to past experiences.
There's nothing more that you can do yeah
Acceptance of the limits of the other person's actions.
And maybe it's my fault
Reiteration of self-blame or responsibility.
I shouldn't have believed
Regret for believing in something (repeated theme).
Every single late at night
Recollection of repeated declarations of love at night (repeated theme).
I love you said
Quoting a declaration of love (repeated theme).
I guess I should have seen
Realization of a missed indication or sign (repeated theme).
If we're through
Acceptance that the relationship might be over (repeated theme).
Then I'll leave
Expressing the intention to depart from the situation (repeated theme).
And you'll be rid of me
Recognition of being a burden to the other person (repeated theme).
I loved you
Confirmation of past love (repeated theme).
And I can see
Acknowledging a realization about the situation (repeated theme).
That you won't even miss me
Belief that they won't be missed by the other person (repeated theme).
If we're through
Reiteration of accepting the end of the relationship.
Then I'll leave
Expressing the intention to depart from the situation (repeated theme).
And you'll be rid of me
Recognition of being a burden to the other person (repeated theme).
I loved you
Confirmation of past love (repeated theme).
And I can see
Acknowledging a realization about the situation (repeated theme).
That you won't even miss me
Belief that they won't be missed by the other person (repeated theme).
