The words tell a story of the speaker being strung along for two years, with most of the decisions and control being held in the hands of their partner. Lyrics like "calling me to tell me I miss you, now I think you finally do" reveal the way the speaker has felt her emotions being toyed with. When a relationship happens on one person's terms, it can send the other on an impossible spiral of confusion, and the chorus of this song takes on that questioning in an introspective repetition of the title. Even through the instability, the lyrics will pull at your heartstrings with the love the speaker feels through it all.
Let yourself get wrapped up in the melodic journey that is "what do i do?" This track will captivate you with abby's soft, entrancing singing taking you through the song's intense emotions, and instrumentals that build over the coarse of the song while maintaining the tune's characteristic bittersweet softness. Glowing, gentle vocals with a breathy and expressive sound draw you into the whirlwind of confusion and vulnerability brought to the surface in the song. Acoustic guitar warmly accompanies the vocals, acting as the only instrumental through the first verse, before layers of guitar, piano, and strings fold in. Percussion and strings take over the sound through the bridge, building an emotional intensity that carries the sound of vulnerability and brings the emotion to a crux.
