[1][2] It reached the Top 40 in fifteen countries worldwide and is certified double platinum in the United States, Canada, and Australia.

[12] Althea Legaspi and Brittany Spanos of Rolling Stone wrote that the song's lyrical content "addresses following a relationship down a dark road despite warning signs" and noted the "contemplative guitar melody".

[14] The song release was supported by a time-lapse visualizer of Halsey painting a self-portrait which also serves as the album cover for Manic.

It features Halsey and a mysterious girl (Sydney Sweeney) magically from her notebook dancing alone in an amusement park.

[15] When the bridge starts, the mysterious girl disappears while Halsey enters an aquarium, which looks similar to the video for her song, "Clementine".
