So Stevie and Christine wrote "damn your love, damn your lies"?

a little more than 10%
I'm totally fine with "a little more than 10%"--by all means, suggest your own ballpark figures. Wait, what's that? You weren't present during the recording process and neither was I so we must only limit ourselves to what Stevie and Mick say? I see. My bad.

(I found this. Don't know if it's the article that you referred to, and which I am apparently inclined to search for but you apparently are not..?)

In the context of what we know, here she is clearly saying that Lindsey wrote the verse and he took the words for the chorus from her other demo. While I gather that in your literalistic way of thinking there isn't much room for the likes of metonymy(--> edit: synecdoche), I think you'll find that by quoting the first lines of the verse and chorus, respectively, she is referring to the whole verses and chorus.
