My humble interpretation of this song is that it's about ending an unstable and emotionally draining relationship, not necessarily an abusive one. I also get a sense that while leaving was the right thing to do, it wasn't necessarily what the person wanted to do because there was still a lot of love in the relationship. Also, a table represents something that is solid in structure and something that can hold things securely but when you turn a table around, this once solid structure becomes unreliable and becomes completely the opposite of stability. I especially love the line that goes "Next time I'll be braver, I'll be my own savior". From this line, I also get the sense that the lesson learned from this experience was that when you enter a relationship, you can't expect the other person to give you the happiness and stability that you seek. You need to provide those things for yourself on your own.
