This is really close to me because there was domestic violence in my family and it also reminds me of the way my ex made me feel. I was so scared to show so many parts of me but there was something in me dependant on him which is the confusing bit. It gets to the stage where you don't break up with them coz you need them, but the only reason you can list to stay together is because you love them - and is love enough? Sometimes you forget why you loved someone in the first place - fear is such a controlling factor in people's lives - a sad truth. Also, I think it's true to say that the song points out how horrible and demeaning it can feel to feel weak - just because you are being surpressed doesn't mean you bdon't have as much rage, pain, and hurt as the other person, it's just that they're drowning yours out with theirs.
