Yeah it really resonated with me too, particularly; “you got off on the hurting, when it wasn’t yours”.
But it still made me feel sad when she said, “and now the chapter is closed and done, and now it’s goodbye, it’s goodbye for us” because we know, from trauma bonding, that its so painful to close the door on an abusive relationship. I know from my own experience I did it over and over again, knowing full well it was not the end. But then suddenly it was and it’s like a whole era of your life, and all your hopes and dreams for that relationship, have come to end.
I salute her for writing that song. It is so simple yet it sums it up. You do have to lose your abuser if you can have any hope of ever loving yourself x
