During an Instagram live, prior to the release of Do You Wonder About Me?, Alex said there was going to be a voicemail in the middle of the song from her grandmother who passed away in late 2018. Alex’s grandma used to leave voicemails saying “just wanted to see if you’re still alive”.
[Verse 1]
Just because my ears are ringing
Doesn’t mean someone’s talkin’ about me
I like to think everyone’s too busy
In this big city
I’m not the kind of girl
I don’t know what kind of girl I would be
I just wanna take care of my friends, my plants, and me
[Interlude]
Hey hun, I'm just wondering if you got home okay, if you were able to, bye
[Verse 2]
Do you ever think that you could be someone who’s at the party
Not worried about what other people might be thinking of me?
I never thought I could be the one who was so carefree
But when I’m with you I can take on anyone or anybody
Let’s park by the airport, we can watch the planes all hit the sky
My favorite songs on in the gas station, maybe it’s a sign
That everything will be alright and I can finally sleep at night
I promise I will try in spite of
All the things that I hate
And all the shit they validate and all the
Traffic it takes to get on over to your place
But I would stay awake so late if it meant I could see your face
If you were a line, I’d tell people you’re worth the wait
