Huh. Okay, point taken. In a filmed or photographed context it's the perpetrator's point-of-view.

At the same time, the subject matter is the feelings and reactions of the victim, which is what a song is about when it's from the victim's perspective.

In either case you aren't seeing inside the perpetrator's head, you're just getting to see the reactions (fear, pain, etc.) that he causes in the victim.
