To me this song is about an unrequited love, the narrator is being ignored by their love interest, maybe they’re more famous or successful hence getting overtaken by the crowd like their fans, so the narrator walks away and tries to float out of existence to lessen the pain. Obviously they go way back, so while they’re still the same ppl, they see each other differently ( actually the love interest sees the narrator differently now that they’re a big shot)
