I wrote Purify about someone I was deeply in love with. He felt like a soul mate, but at the same time he was someone that triggered all my deepest fears and anxieties. Somehow through this emotional roller coaster I found true healing. He was a manifestation of the type of dynamic I had been attracting my whole life. We attract what we are used to, and through this experience I did find true healing, true confidence, and purification of my soul. I raised my standards for love and partnership after this relationship, whereas during the writing of this song I was deep in it, and willing to completely sacrifice myself for love. It seems on some level by singing “Purify Me” my subconscious was wanting to be cleared of this dark energy, but in the verses you see my conscious self being willing to lose herself for love.
