“It was about how people try to control women, and how I felt emotionally yanked around by these relationships that I had, and how much power you’re allowing yourself to give them.”
“It meant one thing to me and 100 things to other people, and I was looking at it going, ‘That’s valid. Mine’s valid. What’s for dinner?’ Not to bypass the weight that it did carry for some people. I saw it and was like, ‘That is a great point. It wasn’t the point I was trying to make.’”
On her music reflecting the duality of love, lust, and breakups:
“I feel like you can be super confident and strong and also knowingly f–k up and knowingly get yourself into situations that are not good for you.
