This tune is a potent cocktail of regret, longing, and the bitter aftertaste of love gone wrong. It's about waking up next to someone you once loved, only to find that the intoxicating allure has been replaced by a throbbing headache of emotional turmoil. Cam equates heartbreak with a hangover, both leaving you feeling sick and disoriented. The song dives into the aftermath of heated arguments ("shot for shot") and unhealed wounds ("tattooed with words"). The mention of another woman adds a twist of jealousy to this heartache brew. As painful as it is, she can't avoid confronting her feelings - much like how one can't avoid a hangover after a night of heavy drinking. So here's to love hangovers - they might be painful, but they're part of the healing process!
