Verse 1 Meaning:
In this verse, the singer describes how she’s constantly reminded of her past relationship. Everyday activities, like passing by the building where she met her ex or seeing their favorite chocolates, make her long for them. These reminders are bittersweet because she wishes she could still share those moments with them, but everything has changed. There’s a sense of longing and regret, as well as the realization that this relationship is now over.

Pre-Chorus Meaning:
The singer feels trapped in her memories and the constant presence of her ex’s “ghost.” She needs to escape this situation, to stop seeing reminders of them every day. She expresses how difficult it is to let go, especially since she feels their lives are still intertwined, even though they’ve moved on.

Chorus Meaning:
In the chorus, the singer reflects on the painful truth that her ex likely doesn’t think about her anymore. Despite that, she wishes they would return to her, and she wants to be with them again. The pain of being left behind is overwhelming, as she can’t shake the feeling that something is unfinished.

Verse 2 Meaning:
This verse continues the theme of painful reminders. The singer searches for their song on the radio, watches the bus they used to take together, and feels the drama of every day without them. She tells others she loves her ex, even though it feels wrong, and walks alone in the places they once shared. Every little detail feels empty without their presence, showing how deeply the breakup has affected her.

Pre-Chorus Meaning:
Here, the singer repeats her desire to escape the situation. She’s still haunted by the constant presence of her ex’s memory and feels stuck in the past. She recognizes that their lives have moved on, but she still feels a connection and the struggle of trying to let go.

Chorus Meaning:
Again, the singer acknowledges that her ex probably doesn’t think of her anymore. But she still wishes for their return, even though she knows it’s unlikely. The chorus highlights the emotional weight of being the one left behind, unable to move on while the other person has moved on with their life.

Outro Meaning:
The outro repeats the singer’s feelings of being forgotten by her ex, while still hoping for their return. The repetition of the phrase “What a fu*king thing to be the one who has stayed here” emphasizes the frustration and sadness of being the person left behind in the relationship, stuck in the past.
