idk if anyone’s made this comparison yet, but “Whose Eye Is It Anyway?” by Jhariah fits very well with all the Jarthur divorces.

Text reads: "My head is overflowing, with these thoughts That if I return the favor you might understand But I know, I know you could never carry the burden You've left with me and I can't give it back So why even try? I'm reeling from all of the pain I feel it making me insane If it's an eye for an eye then we all go blind If it came to it would you cross that line? With the taste of the blood on your tongue like wine And the weight of your crimes weighing on your mind It's an eye for an eye and we all go blind again An arm and a leg, my friend, les yeux d'la tete I never give as much as I get This path of heart attacks is paved with folks Who only gave their enemies what they had coming I don't know if it's worth it I'm reeling from all of the pain I feel it making me insane"

Text reads: "If it's an eye for an eye then we all go blind If it came to it would you walk that line? With the taste of the blood on your tongue like wine And the weight of your crimes weighing on your mind Is it a knife or a lie is it in your back Is it all I need? Is it all I have? Will it bring me the peace that I need so desperately? Will I see? It's an eye for an eye and we all go blind again When you seek vengeance you must dig two graves If it's an eye for an eye then we all go blind If it came to it would you walk that line? With the taste of the blood on your tongue like wine And the weight of your crimes weighing on your mind Is it a knife or a lie is it in your back? Is it all I need? Is it all I have? Will it bring me the peace that I need so desperately? Will I see? It's an eye for an eye and we all go blind again"

And its not even just the mentions of blindness.

It just seems to encapsulate a lot of my personal ideas about Jarthur during their divorces.

Just the first section, “My head is overflowing, with these thoughts/That if I return the favor you might understand/But I know, I know you could never carry the burden/You've left with me and I can't give it back/So why even try?” It just fits some of their early dynamics.

I’m not very good at explaining this stuff the way it works in my head. But you can probably draw your own comparisons.
