With its infectious melody and relatable lyrics, the song captures the frustration of seeing an ex who repeatedly messes up try to play the victim.
In Abigail Mae’s words, the track is “for everyone who has been cheated on (spoiler alert: me), and is sick and tired of watching the cheater turn themselves into the victim. They don’t get to be sad!” This powerful sentiment resonates with anyone who’s been left to pick up the pieces after a betrayal, turning their pain into an empowering rallying cry.

“Music can make people feel anything,” Abigail shares, emphasizing her belief in the power of song. “Leading with kindness is paramount as my catalog of music continues to grow—though I’m definitely likely to write a tune about keying a car and getting revenge on anyone who does me dirty!”
