When I had first heard Hypocrates, I was in my room, listening to a Playlist for Marina and The Diamonds I'd come up with the day before, I still hadn't heard every song. That night was my last night in my verbally, and emotionally abusive Biological Father's house and I was packing to move out,the next day, my mother was coming up to where I was living to see me graduate with my Dad and younger brothers. I'd had a beautiful day too, one of my straight best friends had said some things about me[specifically his approval of the 'badassness' of me wearing my heels ALL DAY] that just made me feel good because he's one of the only people who really gets it. It was just past midnight, and I was reflecting as Hypocrates came up on my playlist. I don't really remember the details, but upon the beginning of the first chorus I collapsed onto the stuff I was packing away in huge heaving sobs. I just felt like I was being freed from heavy chains, like I was about to step off a tall mountaintop and fly. I was sad for what I was losing, but happy for everything I was gaining.
To me this song represents the freedom from my father, who didn't appreciate me and was always trying to change me. Freedom from abuse, Freedom from the lies and hypocrisy. Marina you've personified the essence of what it feels like to be free from someone who abuses you and tries to hold you down.
@BoyPrincess32 I could not agree with you more about this song. I have always felt the same way, freedom from abuse. For me it was freedom from my emotionally and verbally abusive mother. Literally every word fits so perfectly. Listening to and singing along to this song is very cathartic for me for that reason.
