In “Rockland,” Gracie addresses her ex with a regretful tone. Even though she was the one to break things off, she’s hoping her ex would take her back. The feelings shared throughout this song are very similar to ones seen in her 2021 song “Mess It Up,” where she also regrets breaking up with a lover. The song serves as the second single to her upcoming debut album This is What It Feels Like.

This song marks the first collaboration between Gracie Abrams and producer Aaron Dessner.

Gracie posted a snippet of this song on her TikTok 18 days before the song’s official release.
