Lorde's fourth album, 'Virgin,' set for release on June 27, reveals her personal experiences including a life-changing breakup and battles with an eating disorder. The song 'Broken Glass' dives deep into her emotional struggles, portraying the conflicting emotions she faced while touring her previous album, 'Solar Power.' In a candid reflection, she expresses regret over her body image issues while conveying an ongoing desire for recovery. The track blends sharp synths with poignant lyrics, illustrating the turmoil caused by her unhealthy habits and emphasizing that healing is a continuous journey.
I'm having this really amazing, rich experience of playing the shows and meeting these kids, and I'm also looking at the pictures afterward and feeling deep loathing at the sight of my beautiful, tiny tummy, thinking it was so unforgivable what I had allowed it to become.
Felt great to strip, new waist to hip; I hate to admit just how much I paid for it.
Did I cry myself to sleep about that? Rot teeth about that? Did I sweat hours a week about that? Compete about that? Lose my freak about that? Huh, all of the above.
I wanna punch the mirror to make her see that this won't last; but what if it's just broken glass?
