In the song "Everything You're Not Supposed to Be," Mélanie Laurent and Damien Rice express the pain and freedom that comes with walking away from a toxic relationship. They acknowledge that they were everything they weren't supposed to be to each other, and the realization that they're better off apart brings a sense of relief and freedom. The lyrics touch on the feelings of being trapped and alone in the relationship, but ultimately finding solace and a renewed sense of self after the breakup. The haunting melody and raw emotion in the vocals capture the struggle and acceptance of the end of a destructive relationship.
