""We Don't Talk" is "definitely" about Haylie. "Just absolutely the most lonely part of my existence is not having my sister in my life at the moment," she said. "As a person that exists in the world without my other half, so many people are having that experience," she said. "A lot of conversations that I'm having with people are like, 'Yeah, me too.'"
"In the song, co-written and produced with her husband, Matthew Koma, Duff agonizes over a broken relationship with an estranged relative without mentioning Haylie by name, singing, 'We come from the same home, the same blood.' She even ponders what happened for them to become so distant, offering, 'If it's 'cause you're jealous, God knows I would sell it all, then break you off the bigger half.'"
Hilary Duff confirmed estrangement from sister Haylie and wrote the song "We Don't Talk" about their strained relationship. The song conveys deep loneliness and regret over not having a sister in her life. Duff wrestled with whether to include the song on her album but chose to release it because many people relate to experiencing the absence of a close family member. The track was co-written and produced with her husband Matthew Koma and includes lyrics about shared roots, jealousy, and the puzzling distance between siblings. The sisters have had minimal public interaction since 2019.
