” ‘Rotten’ is about once when I was in a park with a friend – we ran into some older kids that we didn’t particularly like but we were hanging out. One thing led to another and I ended up doing something I deeply regret.
In this moment I realized I was just as rotten as the guys I was criticizing earlier. I was ashamed and disgusted by myself for what I did but I needed to get it off my chest, so I wrote this paradoxical and cryptical song to tell my story. For me, ‘Rotten’ represents one of my deeply held regrets…”
