    Having just freed myself from my 2nd abusive relationship, I get this song! My anger, hurt, and embarrassment of a relationship I put everything into, but went sour, can be overwhelming. I now consider both women poison and I should have seen that in the beginning and not married either of them. That's on me and I take responsibility for those mistakes! I did love them, but they hurt me back. Time to move on. :)
