“It’s totally a song about heartbreak. I’ve never been really good at writing songs about relationships,” she told ZM’s Fletch, Vaughan and Megan.
“It’s more about finding yourself through that situation. You go through the thing and it’s so awful and you just wish you could let go. The green light thing is saying ‘I’m not okay right now but I’m going to be okay’.
“I have not played it to many people. A few more people have heard it now, in the past week. I’m not a big player of my stuff as I’m writing it. Some artists are but for a long time it was just me and my co-writer who had heard the song.”
Lorde split from her long-term boyfriend James Lowe in 2015.
