It was released on 18 October 2018 by TEN Music Group as the lead single from her third studio album Poster Girl (2021).

Larsson unearths a darker side of herself lyrically, diving into the dynamics of a toxic relationship.

With a self-annihilating fatalism, Larsson's refrain of 'I want you to ruin my life/ruin my life/ruin my life' may seem naively reckless but, as the singer explains, taps into a more universal sentiment.

"[4] Larsson announced the release of the song on Instagram in September 2018, also sharing the cover art.

[6] Natasha Azarmi of Aftonbladet called the song a mix between the two moods of Larsson's previous album So Good, in that it is "quiet in the verses" and then picks up the pace for the chorus.
