i like this song too. It just makes me think of a girl who grew up and left her home. it sounds like she became something she didnt want to. Now she is trying to find herself again, reminds me of Lady Antebellum's "American Honey".

What does it mean when she says "i know you dont know me from Adam"? i dont get it.

That's a saying. It just means that she's now a stranger to whoever's living in her old house. And that's funny that you compared this song to "American Honey", because I've thought for awhile that the two songs have some similar qualities. "American Honey" is a little happier than this one though.
