On “Missing Me,” Angie expresses the intense emotion of telling someone that you love that they are doing you wrong. Even if she is considering leaving – she hasn’t made up her mind. She told Richard Kingsmill on triple j:
It definitely is quite an open and honest song… It felt like a lot of things...
[Verse 1]
Loving you has thrown me
Loving you is lonely
Loving you is lonely
Oh, you can swagger
You can gather attention
But I'm sick of your photographs
I'm so sick of your photographs
Oh, you can chatter
You can talk me to nothing
But I'm tired of being your sweetheart
I'm tired of being your sweetheart
[Chorus]
Loving you has thrown me
You have been my only rock on the ground
Now I'm out of sight
Loving you is lonely
Loving you is lonely
[Verse 2]
I don't wanna baby
That I beg and that I borrow
And I don't wanna follow you
I'm just too proud to follow you
You don't wanna a baby
Gonna have to go tomorrow
You're better be missing me
You're better be missing me
You're better be missing me now
[Chorus]
Loving you has thrown me
You have been my only rock on the ground
Now I'm out of sight
Loving you is lonely
Loving you is lonely, lonely, lonely
Loving you is lonely
Loving you has thrown me
[Breakdown]
You're better be missing me
You're better be missing me
You're better be missing me
You're better be missing me now
You're better be missing me now
You're better be missing me now

I wrote “Missing Me” to feel powerful while also feeling hurt and sad, and I hope that some people can relate to it and love singing along as much as I love singing it.
