Lorde talks to Henry Oliver for The Spinoff about the lyrics, songwriting and production of every song on her album Melodrama
"It's not a historical document. It's not a police record. It's not journalism. I didn't go to journalism school, I'm a writer. It's about what I felt and sometimes you can feel an element of guilt or 'oh god, I shouldn't have immortalised that person', but the song is my way of saying 'it's what I've always been. It's what I was when you met me. It's what I will continue to be after you leave. That's exactly what was going to happen when you kissed a writer in the dark.'"
