WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY:

girlhouse’s indie-pop track "you don't think about me" captures heartbreak and social anxiety with simple lyrics and a wistful, catchy melody. The song's theme revolves around a breakup, and the singer's struggle with understanding others' actions due to social anxiety.

"Inspired by social anxiety and my hyper fixation on understanding and putting meaning to everything! I go down rabbit holes in my head trying to fix everything I’ve ever done wrong or stupid things I’ve said, to the point where it almost feels egotistic. It drives me nuts and it’s a constant battle for me. In this song I’m talking about a falling out I had with someone that I couldn’t figure out why they do or say the things that they do. I had to stop myself because, “there is no way this person is putting as much energy into figuring this out as I am right now!!” And I dropped it. I’m getting better at learning when to walk away and that’s been a hard journey for me."  - girlhouse

The tune starts with a guitar riff, building to a crescendo as the singer aims to move on and feel better. girlhouse revealed that the song was inspired by her social anxiety and her tendency to overanalyze situations. It serves as a reminder that others may not share our energy or concerns, and it's okay to walk away. Check it out for yourself and let us know what you think.
