Question
In the credits song "Want You Gone" of Portal 2, there is one line where the text is [REDACTED]. The lyric is either "I'll stop feeling so bad" or "I'll stop feeling so glad", but after listening several times I can't tell which one.
Can anyone provide evidence for which one it is? Or is it ambiguous on purpose, so you don't know whether GLaDOS loves you or not at the end?
Answer
The lyric is "I'll stop feeling so bad". The reason it is redacted in the first place, is because GLaDOS is, in her own way, admitting she has grown fond of Chell. Redacting it prevents that admission of momentary weakness.
If she was happy Chell was gone, there would have been no need to redact the lyric.
I think this song is captioned if you've turned on subtitles, which will confirm the above.
