This poignant lyrical composition explores the theme of self-realization and rediscovery after the end of a romantic relationship. The protagonist initially believes that she would miss her partner, but instead finds herself missing her own identity that was suppressed during the relationship. The lyrics depict a journey of self-reclamation, where she discards the constraints imposed by her former partner and re-engages with her individuality - from personal style to social connections. The repeated phrase "I miss me more" emphasizes this newfound understanding and prioritization of self. This song serves as an empowering anthem about maintaining one's individuality in relationships and reclaiming it when lost. It underscores the importance of personal growth, independence, and self-love in overcoming heartbreak.
Miss Me More
Lyrics
I retired my red lipstick 'cause you said you didn't like it
I didn't wear my high heel shoes
'Cause I couldn't be taller than you
I didn't wanna lose my friends, but now it's hard to even find them
It's what you wanted, ain't it?
It's what you wanted
I thought I'd miss you (when it ended)
I thought it hurt me (but it didn't)
I thought I'd miss you
I thought I'd miss you
But I miss me more
I miss my own beat, to my own snare drum
I miss me more
Miss my own sheets in the bed I made up
I forgot I had dreams, I forgot I had wings
Forgot who I was before I ever kissed you
Yeah, I thought I'd miss you
But I miss me more (I miss me more)
I put on my old records that I hid in the back of the closet
And I turn them up to ten
And then I played them all again
I found my independence
Can't believe I ever lost it
What you wanted, ain't it?
It's what you wanted
I thought I'd miss you (when it ended)
I thought it hurt me (but it didn't)
I thought I'd miss you
Yeah, I thought I'd miss you
But I miss me more
I miss my own beat, to my own snare drum
(I miss me more)
Miss my own sheets in the bed I made up
I forgot I had dreams, I forgot I had wings
Forgot who I was before I ever kissed you
Yeah, I thought I'd miss you
But I miss me more (I miss me more)
I thought I'd miss you
I thought it hurt me
And I'd wanna kiss you
I thought I'd miss you
But I miss me more
I miss my own beat, to my own snare drum
(I miss me more)
Miss my own sheets in the bed I made up
I forgot I had dreams, I forgot I had wings
Forgot who I was before I ever kissed you
And I thought I'd miss you
But I miss me more
(I miss me more)
(I miss me more)
(I miss me more)
