Background

[edit]

It's about Ingrosso ending his relationship with Linnea Wildmark.[4] Talking about the song, Ingrosso said, "This song is incredibly personal to me. It's about that stage after a break up where you feel bitter about what happened and you haven’t really let the person go. If you listen carefully to the lyrics – you know exactly what the song is about."[5]
