What it is
"Savior Complex" is track 8 on Phoebe Bridgers' 2020 album Punisher, co-written with Christian Lee Hutson and Conor Oberst, and was released as a single in December 2020. It continues the album's subject of a difficult relationship. Bridgers has said it is about realizing that being with someone who has a self-hating streak means repeating the struggle their past partners went through to break down their walls.
