Kryptonite Lyrics

Cover art for Kryptonite lyrics by 3 Doors Down

The vocalist has a relationship with a loved one who is deeply important to them. They repeatedly go to save and help this person, and afterward feel unappreciated, strained and neglected by them.

The relationship is like kryptonite for the singer, a fatal weakness, because they understand deep down that this loved one will betray and blame them if the singer fails to keep them safe.
