Here, Charli XCX beats herself up because she can't keep hold of healthy relationships, instead endlessly falling for men who are dysfunctional and toxic. She told Tom Grennan on BBC Radio 1's Future Sounds, "This song is about being a little bit self-destructive and I think that's definitely something that I've done a lot in my past."
Charli XCX wrote the song with: Robin Fredrikson and Mattias Larsson of the Swedish production team Mattman & Robin. Norwegian songwriter Caroline Ailin, who has contributed towards several of Dua Lipa's hit songs, including "New Rules" and "Don't Start Now." Swedish songwriters and producers Oscar Holter and Noonie Bao, who also co-penned Charli XCX's "1999."
Oscar Holter is part of Max Martin's Wolf Cousins production company. He teamed up with his boss to co-produce five tracks on The Weeknd's After Hours album, including the singles "Blinding Lights," "In Your Eyes," and "Save Your Tears."
