The song is about Ellise’s current relationship with someone who is slowly falling out of love with her. She encourages the other person to talk with her “over breakfast” because she already knows they are trying to slowly ghost her.
On March 28th, 2021, Ellise revealed why she wrote the song.

[Verse 1]
Everything is wrong
Tell me what you're thinking
Almost like I blinked and now you're gone
What's inside your head? Do I wanna know?
It burns under my skin the things you said
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Don't feel so good
I watch you change
Misunderstood the situation
While you fade away
[Chorus]
Tell me over breakfast
I already know that you want to
Tell me it's a dead-end
You already got your flight booked
Tell me over breakfast
'Cause it's clear
You don't care about me how you used to
Just get me a second
Just save it for breakfast
[Verse 2]
Gеt out of my head
Have to be up еarly
Staring at the ceiling from my bed
Wish it wasn't real
Wonder if you miss me
Maybe if you kissed me, I could tell
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Can't comprehend
How fast this changed
You're different
I don't even recognize your bitter face
[Chorus]
Tell me over breakfast
I already know that you want to
Tell me it's a dead-end
You already got your flight booked
Tell me over breakfast
'Cause it's clear
You don't care about me how you used to
Just get me a second
Just save it for breakfast
[Outro]
Just get me a second
Just save it for breakfast
