Vow

I don't think this is a song about revenge...at least not in the context you all are saying. The opening line of the song says it all, "I Can't Use What I can't Abuse..." If anything she seems to be the coldhearted one in this story. It sounds like she's a woman that goes from one meaningless shag to another until she finds this person who has completely swept her off her feet...in a GOOD way. I think she's using strong references to herself as being "burned" and "crucified" because of her self destructive behavior. "I nearly died..." refers to something so wonderful and NEW that she couldn't accept it. Love in HER world is viewed as something evil hence using such negative language to describe her situation. She's usually in control but this person has sunk beneath her skin. She HATES it! So...like any self destructive person she's going to do everything she can to destroy what could be the best thing to happen in her life. Or at least thats what she hopes to accomplish to avoid any sort of submission on her part to be involved in a loving relationship. Anyways, thats how the song comes to me.
