That's so odd, I think I started that rumour on here some years ago so possibly she's a member? The lyric doesn't really sound like anything off of THB or JPFL, it's very direct whereas Richey tends to use 3rd person views as ciphers. Also James was going through a rough break up (or was it divorce) at the time of writing so it's potentially something he could have been motivated to write. Complete spitballing on my part admittedly but nice to see it floating unchecked across the wider manics community.
