For a day or two

You said sorry

Then you didn't waste time

Before telling everyone

That I'm the nutcase

I really wonder

What your buddies kept

From those years

Probably everything but love

And all that I gave

Never counting anything

I didn't want to either

For it to end like that

But you only listen to yourself

I just wanted to get that right

To get our breakup right

But even that you don't want

I force myself not to think

About everything you wrecked

My deepest fears

That you liked to bring back out

To see if it hurt me

Nights spent lying to me

Coming home wasted

First song on stage

You couldn't make it

You'd spent the night partying

I didn't want to either

For it to end like that

But you only listen to yourself

I just wanted to get that right

I smoked too many cigarettes

And now I'm thinking of you

Coming home from having a drink

With girls you don't know

I'd have liked not to

Feel

Alone

I think I'd like that guy

But of course I won't go

He's probably hiding a heavy secret

Or why would he want me

You wanted to make me feel

Alone

I loved you, you'd love me

But you make me pathetic

And I can't fix it all

I loved you, you'd love me

But you make me pathetic

I quit cigarettes

And I'm not afraid of you anymore

I started partying again

Stopped being scared of myself

You wanted to make me leave

Alone

There's always a new path

I hadn't seen inside me

We heal one trauma at a time

Why aren't there medals

For that

You predicted my future

Alone

I didn't want to either

For it to end like that

But you only listen to yourself

I didn't want to either

But you make me pathetic

I didn't want to either

Like that

I didn't want to either

But you make me pathetic

(But you make me pathetic

But you make me pathetic

SONG MEANING

“Rater Une Rupture Pour Les Nuls” literally means “How to Mess Up a Break-Up for Dummies,” and Iliona turns that cheeky title into a heartfelt diary entry. In the verses she relives a breakup where her partner quickly paints her as the “crazy one” while bragging to friends. We hear memories of late-night lies, missed milestones, and the cruel way he poked at her deepest fears. The song feels like scrolling through a private text thread filled with sorry-notsorry messages, cigarette smoke, and tear-stained dance floors.

Yet the chorus flips the mood from victim to victor. Iliona admits she never wanted the relationship to end like this, but each line shows her reclaiming herself: quitting cigarettes, going out again, daring to trust new people, and healing “one trauma at a time.” By the final refrain she is no longer “minable” (pathetic) but empowered, spotting “a new path” inside herself that was hidden before. The result is an anthem for anyone who has ever tried to stage a “perfect” breakup, failed spectacularly, and discovered something stronger on the other side.
