Drive by Halsey Song Info
“Drive” touches on a love that lives within boundaries. The lovers keep their relationship distinct—careful not to make the first move, yet inevitably enjoying each other’s presence and silently yearning for more. Halsey told Popjustice that this was the first happy song she ever wrote: It’s a sweet song, it’s about being in a relationship, being in love with someone and not knowing how to tell them. […] It’s so ironic that it’s called ‘Drive’ because it symbolizes this departure from the Badlands—this point where I drive away. I leave. Halsey described this song as “the music baby of me and Timmy the Terror aka the mastermind behind “Hurricane” […] sad vibey heat.” “Drive” became available through iTunes at midnight exactly a week before the release of Badlands on August 21st, 2015. The demo version was included in the deluxe box set as a 7" record.
