Or maybe a lot of her songs aren't strictly autobiographical. Maybe all those times she said that a lot of what she writes isn't strictly autobiographical, and that she takes inspiration from a lot of places, she meant it. I know, what a wild concept.

Considering you care enough about both her personal life and this song in particular to have formulated the opinion in this secret, it shouldn't take more than an extra moment of reflection to determine that this song is probably not based on any one particular guy.

She says "the decades would play us for fools" which already suggests this is a predominantly fictional scenario, given the timeframe she's working with. She says, "I crashed into you like so many wrecks do / Too impaired by my youth to know what to do," so if she were talking about a specific guy it would have to be one from quite a while back; Calvin Harris or earlier, I would say. I'm sure people wanna think, "You needed me, but you needed drugs more" is about Matty, and hey, maybe that one specific line is inspired by him, that's possible. But it's pretty clear that the line, "Changed planes and lovers and outfits and rules / All to outrun my desertion of you" isn't about Matty.

It seems pretty clear that this songs is an amalgamous blend of different men and experiences, likely including some entirely fictional elements.
