The song Backstabber by Dystopia speaks about the betrayal and hurt one feels when someone they trusted stabs them in the back. The lyrics are filled with anger and bitterness towards the person who has betrayed them. The use of explicit language and aggressive tone underlines the intensity of the emotions.
The singer expresses feeling violated, hurt, confused, and angry, and the use of the drug thorazine suggests a struggle with mental health. They are in a state of depression, which is only made worse by the betrayal they have experienced. They realize that they were blind to trust this person, and the betrayal has left them in a worse state than before. They have lost faith in humanity and have become resentful towards those who they once trusted.
The song speaks to the universal experience of betrayal and the pain that comes with it. It highlights the feeling of being alone and helpless, with no one to trust. We all have experienced times where we have been let down by the people we trusted, and this song captures that sense of despair.
