With her clever and biting wit, Green masterfully crafts lyrics that resonate deeply with listeners. Lines such as “It must have all been in my head, all those nights of candid conversations, boundaries breaking left and right ’til 3 am were never laced with romantic intonations, hey, that’s just how you talk to friends” perfectly encapsulate the emotional whirlwind that unrequited love can bring.
With this intense track, Green is poised to leave a long-lasting impression on the music industry thanks to her soul-baring voice and open narrative.
