What it is
"Perfect Places" is a song by Lorde, co-written with Jack Antonoff and released in June 2017 as the second single from her second album, Melodrama. It brings the album's teenage party scene to a close, with Lorde wondering where she belongs once the night is over. It also touches on loneliness, including the fear of being alone with her own thoughts, which she named as a reason she went out partying.
