Noticed I cried

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
"We don't really have that much in common" (common)
But what did you really gain from it? (From it)
We split in two, now you don't want me
Now it's the start of July
You thought that you broke my heart
And now every time that you see me you vanish (vanish)
'Cause you assumed you really mattered (really mattered)
Now you're a burden of mine
Did you notice I cried, but only just a little bit (yeah)
Tell you I like things split down in the middle
'Cause you're taking one side, not the side that I like
Because you know I can't lie when you're in my mind
You're too cruel to be kind and I know that from experience
I can hear your replies but it's maybe that I'm hearing things
And I've heard all your lies, there's no lies that I like
So I'll take that as a sign, you're a burden of mine (hey)
Mine
Burden of mine, mine
(Of, of, of, of) mine
Of my
Life
The lyrics of PinkPantheress's "Noticed" are an admirable blend of wordplay and rhythmic hooks. The song appears to be directed towards a lover/friend who split up with her recently. The singer asserts that the person doesn't matter to her anymore, and they are nothing but a burden now. The song is a great portrayal of power dynamics in relationships where the partner who "moves forward" first holds the power.
The chorus "Did you notice I cried, but only just a little bit" is an intriguing one, conveying various emotions at the same time. It suggests that the pain the singer endured was minimal previously and that she has now moved on. But on the other hand, it also implies that the person who left her might not have noticed or cared about her distress.
The lines "You're too cruel to be kind, and I know that from experience" and "So I'll take that as a sign, you're a burden of mine" speak volumes about how the singer has changed her stance on the person. The former suggests that the person was manipulative and hurtful towards her, and she has had enough of it. The latter highlights the idea that the person is nothing but baggage that the singer doesn't wish to carry anymore.
