It Only Takes One Shot Lyrics

Many things in these lyrics escape me, such as:

"two can be undone by three"

Would appreciate anyone who could shed some light over that section.

One thing is certain, for all the elements of cacophony as metaphor for this love are there: "When lovers of the future read these lines A sound of steel and thunder Will echo in their minds ,this love wasn't easy and it is no more.

Maybe when she sings that

"I took it for a long, long time And a woman can take a lot"

she is describing some sort of abuse, and that would be confirmed as the psychological type when she says

"You were there To see me beg and kneel What kind of man would ask me then If he could make a deal?

I may be completely off target here, maybe just mirroring own feelings with those of Lera, but the emotional load of this song is inescapable, and it is heavy!
