I've heard this song a few times before, but it has been just recently that I paid attention to the lyrics.
"As I watch you disappear into the ground, my one mistake was that I couldn't let you down."
To me, the song is about a controlling and abusive person that the singer nonetheless loved. This person recently died and the singer is depressed and in mourning, wishing that things had been different and that she hadn't loved him, but it's too late to change things.
This song moved me and I truly appreciate The Pretty Reckless for doing a stellar performance of the song and Kato Khandwala, Taylor Momsen, and Ben Phillips for their amazing writing talent.
