“I loved the idea of the person who tore my heart out asking how you’ve been doing… like are you for real?! And then my response being this song. As you would imagine, my response would be drenched in sarcasm. ‘It’s probably for the best, you’re not laying on my chest, you always seemed too obsessed (lol), Honestly what could I expect?’ That response was what drove the whole story. In keeping with the comical nature of the lyrics, I decided the music had to have an upbeat, summery and ‘care-free’ feel. Like a ‘well adjusted’ human, hiding their pain behind humour.”
