He’ll promise the whole world, just to lay you down,” Turner knitts every sore emotion into a plea to her ex’s new lover. “There will be a next one after you,” she sings later through parted lips. The folk arrangement has a visceral quality, a background on which the singer-songwriter pours out her heart like buckets of paint.
