In Their Words: “‘Rita’ is a song about the blurred lines between attraction thatâs real and long-lasting, and attraction thatâs intense and fleeting. To me, itâs about lacking trust in my own impulses, and constantly questioning if those feelings are valid. I wrote this song while on tour on two separate occasions about a year apart, and the distance between those two moments really helped me put what I was feeling in perspective. The contributions of Allen, Jess, James, and Miles really helped bring this song to life and create the dark and the anxious landscape of those emotions.” — Will Orchard
