“Curious” is a “a smug little revenge tale” based off of true experiences. In an interview with Billboard, Hayley says:

I date a lot of women who are into it, but they’re uncomfortable with society’s pressures. They’re uncomfortable with liking girls even though they do.

The song talks of LGBTQ+ individuals who create a facade by dating people of the opposite gender and keeping their true feelings to themselves.

“Curious” is the newest single, alongside “Sleepover” and “Feelings,” from Hayley’s debut album Expectations.
