The singer is calling out his ex-partner for their inability to take responsibility for their actions and for their role in the relationship’s demise.
The chorus, “Broken promises are synonymous with the love you give, but you would never admit it,” is a powerful statement about the nature of love and the sacrifices that come with it.
