Jessica Simpson Addresses “Unholy Matrimony” in New Song Amid Divorce

Jessica Simpson is putting it all in the music. 

The singer—who recently announced her divorce from husband Eric Johnson—released her new single “Leave,”  from her upcoming EP Nashville Canyon: Part 1 on March 7. And the angsty breakup track hints at what could have ultimately ended to the demise of a marriage.

“What we had was magic / Now you’ve made it tragic / Giving her what you gave to me / Now the well that you drank from’s empty,” Jessica, who is mom to kids Maxwell, 12, Ace, 11, and Birdie, 5, sings. “Your weakness made me lonely / Unholy matrimony /Did you do to her what you did to me? / Was she on her knees?”

As the song continues, Jessica sings that she’d rather be alone than remain within the current situation.

She sings, “We’re not doing this again / I, I want you to leave / I don’t even want to breathe the air you breathe /I’d rather die / Than let you be inside me with her on your mind / I am stronger on my own / So I’m letting you go.”
