In “Rockland,” Gracie addresses her ex with a regretful tone. Even though she was the one to break things off, she’s hoping her ex would take her back. The feelings shared throughout this song are very similar to ones seen in her 2021 song “Mess It Up,” where she also regrets breaking up with a love...
Rockland Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hey, I feel like I might say the wrong thing
I hung up when I started calling
You probably would've laughed then
If you had seen it happen
Hey, who took my place in bed when I left?
Who laughs at everything that you've said?
I'm sure that I would like her
If I were slightly nicer
[Chorus]
Bet you wish you
Never even met me
I don't blame you
Broke your every heartbeat
[Verse 2]
Hey, I parked across the street from your house
The lights were on, the music got loud
I doubt you would've seen me
I hid from everybody
Hey, I feel like if we gave it one night
You'd hate me less and make it alright
Just wish that we could fight now
I'd hold you on the comedown
[Chorus]
Bet you wish you
Never even met me
I don't blame you
Broke your every heartbeat
Bet you wish you
Never even met me
I can't blame you
Broke your every heartbeat
[Bridge]
I see you every night in my sleep
Anticipating every bad dream
Like falling with a knife, you cut deep
You cut deep, you cut deep
I see you every night in my sleep
Anticipating every bad dream
Like falling with a knife, you cut deep
You cut deep
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
[Chorus]
Bet you wish you
Never even met me
I don't blame you
Broke your every heartbeat
[Outro]
I see you every night in my sleep (Bet you wish you)
Anticipating every bad dream (Never even met me)
Like falling with a knife, you cut deep (I don't blame you)
You cut deep, you cut deep (Broke your every heartbeat)
I see you every night in my sleep (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Anticipating every bad dream (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Like falling with a knife, you cut deep (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
You cut deep (Oh-oh, oh-oh)

How was it like working with Aaron Dessner?
We had a meeting over Zoom towards the beginning of the pandemic, we just felt very similar and, as soon as it became kind of safe and possible for us to meet in person, I went to Long Pond and we made two songs a day for a week and just got to know each other super well. He’s a really important per...
