One of my favorite JOJ songs and one of Robin's best lines. The chorus
and bridge are probably a little off. Please e-mail me corrections.

i dont necessarily think this song means that jessicka (the joj vocalist) is in love with this girl. i think "vivica" is a girl who's in an abusive or not so wonderful relationship with a guy who doesnt treat her the way she should be treated and she feels like ending it, but she song is about how she should be strong and carry on without him. although im not too good at interpreting lyrics..

I kind of always thought of Vivica as the girl from Strawberry Gashes, and she's with this asshole that's ruining her...

The song is actually about Jessicka's ex-girlfriend who left her for a no good guy.

i think they are being sarcastic in this song 'i wish you well', and the singer is not actually JoJ, they mean it like death orsomthing, and its the girl slipping away, her boyfriend doesn't sound abusive 'hes not brave enough', just maybe low self asteem as well, so they are both hurting, but she just gives up to dying

ladyboygrrl - that could be friendship or relationship. i've told my friends they were beautiful many times before. i think it could be about one of jessicka's friends who is in a not so great relationship and jessicka is saying that she is beautiful and can live on.

i think that this song is about jessika seeing one of her really close friends or even ex-girlfriends being involved in a bad relationship.i think jessika is saying that she would be much better off with someone else .that he will never treat vivica how she deserves to be treated.how the guy is slowly dragging vivica down with him and she hopes she will be strong enough to break up with him

This song reminds me of my best friend. who at one time i did fancy her and was madly in luv with her. i still luv her, but as a sister. I did go out with her once, and she finished me and went out with some guy who i knew didnt really care. I was right as he hurt her really badly, but... I still regret letting her go cuz i never told her that i knew she wuz gunna get hurt. i didnt want to incase she thought i wuz saying it to b mean. This song is amazing and makes me cry, as well as witch hunt. -~*~MØ®biD_ång£|~*~
