The song might also contain references to getting even or seeking justice, and could include metaphors or similes to emphasize the emotion.

I think we have included all the best revenge songs of all time, but maybe we have missed one or two. It is clear that these songs do what they do best, it’s all about a story where someone has been betrayed by that person who they thought was their true love. And they want to show that they are not broken, not haunted by the memories of the relationship and they are stronger without this person. Well, that’s what we think anyway.
