He spent most of the song whining and then she has one line that completely destroys any credibility he has 💀

I think that's the point of the song, the male singer is an unreliable narrator

"now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over but had me believing it was always something that I'd done. but I don't wanna live that way. feeding into every word you say" in very few words she managed to tell the actual story

"but you didn't have to cut me off" so he's acknowledging what she says is true but doesn't think it's grounds for her to move on.

That song is just a masterpiece. A masterclass on songwriting and storytelling in a song. If it’s not already a classic, it’ll be for future generations. Also masterclass in sampling ITS SO GOOD

It’s our generation’s “Don’t You Want Me” in that the first verse is the bitter partner complaining and the second verse is the partner that left calling them out on their BS.

He continuously contradicts himself too: “I’ll admit that I was glad it was over,” “but you didn’t have to cut me off” unreliable narrator.

Pretty sure this song is literally ab an avoidant man who doesn’t want the relationship but wants to keep the ties cause he can’t “let go”

This song came out shortly after I cut off my long term hs boyfriend after a very toxic summer. It was cathartic.
