Jessica's heartbreaking song also says:

"You can just wait on me. I won’t be around watching you fade on me; your words mean nothing now. I have way too good a memory. I have no more heart to break. You’re as empty as your promise. Go sleep alone in the bed you made. I’ve been way too optimistic; now it’s all taking a turn, they’re gonna talk, but it’s not their business. The stars align and sometimes burn.”

Jessica, in her song, has kept the name of her ex as unnamed. She revealed that the song came from the bottom of her heart in a press statement and shared of living through this heavy, emotional moment, but there was no way that she was going to cancel the songwriting session.
