Revenge Ballad: "All the Rage" is about the singer's intention to "take over the spotlight" after being ambiguously "rejected."

Love Is Like Religion
 Allie X (Music) / int_5acef2e9
comment
Love Is Like Religion: In "Sanctuary," she characters her beloved as a place of sacred protection, invoking religious terminology such as saints, heretic-burning, and the Rapture.

comment
The Casanova: Zig-zagged in the single, "Casanova," where she alternates between calling the man she has become obsessed with (and who seems to have betrayed her) a Casanova and telling him, "You're no Casanova."

Silly Love Songs: As a pop artist, she has many of these. Straight examples include "Hello" and "Sanctuary," though she also has plenty subversting or deconstructing the happy veneer.

Double-Meaning Title: "All the Rage" is a phrase meaning "trendy" or "popular," but in the context of the song it also means something like "furious."
