Everyday I Love You Less And Less
Kaiser Chiefs㐀 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's clear to see that you've become obsessed
I've got to get this message to the press
That everyday I love you less and less
And everyday I love you less and less
I've got to get this feeling off my chest
The Doctor says all I needs pills and rest
Since everyday I love you less and less
I know, I feel it in my bones
I'm sick, I'm tired of staying in control
Oh yes, I feel a rat upon a wheel
I've got to know what's not and what is real
Oh yes I'm stressed, I'm sorry I digressed
Impressed you're dressed to SOS
Oh, and my parents love me
Oh, and my girlfriend loves me
Everyday I love you less and less
I can't believe once you and me did sex
It makes me sick to think of you undressed
Since everyday I love you less and less
And everyday I love you less and less
You're turning into something I detest
And everybody says that your a mess
Since everyday I love you less and less
And less, and less
I know, I feel it in my bones
I'm sick, I'm tired of staying in control
Oh yes, I feel a rat upon a wheel
I've got to know what's not and what is real
Oh yes I'm stressed, I'm sorry I digressed
Impressed you're dressed to SOS
Oh, and my parents love me
Oh, and my girlfriend loves me
Oh, they keep photos of me
Oh, that's enough love for me
Oh, and my parents love me
Oh, and my girlfriend loves me
Oh, they keep photos of me
Oh, that's enough love for me
Everyday I Love You Less And Less is a song by Kaiser Chiefs, and the lyrics suggest a relationship that has lost its spark. The singer is clearly falling out of love and finding fault in everything about the relationship, with lines like "It's clear to see that you've become obsessed" and "You're turning into something I detest." He apologizes for digressing and being stressed, but says he needs to get this feeling off his chest. He even goes as far as saying that he's sick and tired of staying in control, feeling like a rat on a wheel. The chorus repeats the message that his love for the other person is diminishing every day and that he needs pills and rest to deal with the emotional turmoil.
The song is perhaps an anthem for anyone who has found themselves in a situation where a relationship has gone stale, and the affection that was once so strong has dwindled away. The lyrics are full of emotion, with the repetitive "everyday I love you less and less" and the statement that "it makes me sick to think of you undressed". There's a clear sense of anger and frustration, which is emphasized through the emphatic drumming and guitar riffs.

2006 to 2012 was the best. Now it's just techno with talking to a melody.
