"...it's about a breakup and about a couple spending their last night together although they both know it's not the right thing"
It's actually unclear to me who wrote the lyrics. Zedd (Zaslavski) wrote the song, initially intending to have a male singer, but then sent it to Williams. She says she loved it and wanted to make sure it had words she wanted to sing. It's also unclear what singer/songwriter Carah Faye's credit is doing on the song.
It only matters when we're trying to consider whether the song empowers women. I guess in this haze of who wrote what, it should be considered as gender-neutral. Therefore:

- Neither empowers nor disempowers women
- No name calling
- No real objectification
- I am fire gasoline,Come pour yourself all over me
We'll let this place go down in flames only one more time
You kill the lights, I'll draw the blinds
Don't dull the sparkle in your eyes
I know that we were made to break
So what? I don't mind - Women in relation to man, if assuming heteronormativity, which is not specified.
I'm basically going to give it the not about women grade of average.
