I guess you've had to have heard that exact line "is that a promise, or a threat?" to really get this song. It's got the spirit and the feel of that deciding moment when two people finally call it quits. I can picture a lot of tears, raised voices, and regretted words. She says it's over and she's leaving, and he's calling her out, asking if she's trying to scare him...it's not working. "is that a promise, or a threat?"
