Southern Californian-born Page experiences musical and lyrical catharsis after dreaming about an imagined future with an ex- which, although initially appears rosy, is tainted by the imagery of a funeral – a reference to the relationship’s undeniable end. “It felt like watching a rom-com montage; it was super innocent, us moving into an apartment together years down the line and getting to paint and decorate it all ourselves,” explains Page.
“I woke up feeling super startled and confused and had the whole thing in my head. The friend I was bunking with sleeps in a loft bed with a Wurlitzer underneath – so I jumped off the air mattress and wrote the first verse and chorus on that super quietly so I didn’t wake them up.”
