Man, I've been here myself. Who hasn't? I've been the crazy, jealous ex-girlfriend (who cheated) and I've been the new girlfriend (who hates this terrible ex) too.

This song is about a girl who royally fucked up her last relationship. And she's recently learned that her ex-boyfriend is happy (not nearly as empathetic as Adele, I'll tell you that much) and in a new relationship.

She jealous because she realizes she had something amazing. She bashes the new girl a bit singing, "But she's not me, she's easy" because in her delusional state of mind that's the only thing she can hang on to. "She's not me." She believes she was a cooler, more passionate lover. She feels like she's so much more, so much better. But, truthfully? She probably was just more dramatic.

And she's not wrong about this new girl. She IS easy. And that's why he's with the new girl. She loves and respects him. She's the mother of his child. She's not going to cheat on him.

At the end of this song, I'm happy she's not with her ex-boyfriend anymore. She was the absolute worst!

@sss84 She's easy, as in "she's easy to have a relationship with." Not as in "slut."
