Billie Eilish has taken the wraps off “Everything I Wanted,” a song she describes as a message to and from her brother and creative partner Finneas.
“This song is one my brother and I wrote about each other,” the 17-year-old explained, in a release. “No matter what happens, we always have been and will be there to make it better.”
On Instagram, Eilish said the track is “special to me” and promised “I’ll tell you why soon.”
The lyrics suggest she is reflecting on her quick rise to fame. “I had a dream / I got everything I wanted,” she sings. “Not what you think, and if I’m being honest / It might have been a nightmare to anyone who might care.
“It feels like yesterday was a year ago / but I don’t wanna let anybody know / ‘Cuz everybody wants something from me now / And I don’t want to let them down.”
