Let me set you the scene
November, circa 2019
Put a hole in my heart, watched it bleed
You said that we were better off as strangers
I was barely alive
Out of six feet deep, I was five
Pretty sure they called a hearse outside, okay, that's dramatic
But I survived, then I survived
The "Hey Meg, I think I want you back
I'm a couple drinks in, thinkin' it's my bad
That I let you walk away and let you go" (Go)
It's the tale as old as time, I guess
When you couldn't care more, I couldn't care less
You're a little too late to the party (Little too, little too late), heartbreaker
What doesn't kill you calls you six months later
Oh, how the turns have tabled
All the sudden, now you're willing and able
Little therapy, now you're so stable
Okay, well
Your next girlfriend will be so lucky
To not hear
"Hey Meg, I think I want you back
I'm a couple drinks in, thinkin' it's my bad
That I let you walk away (Let you walk away) and let you go" (Go)
It's the tale as old as time, I guess
When you couldn't care more, I couldn't care less
You're a little too late to the party (Little too, little too late), heartbreaker
What doesn't kill you calls you six months later
What doesn't kill you
Makes you stronger and blonder and hotter
Makes you wonder what you even saw in him at all
What doesn't kill you always calls
(Oh, sorry, I think you have the wrong number?)
With a "Hey Meg, I think I want you back (I think I want you back)
I'm a couple drinks in thinkin' it's my bad (Thinkin' it's my bad)
That I let you walk away (Let you walk away) and let you go" (Go)
It's the tale as old as time, I guess (It's old as time)
When you couldn't care more, I couldn't care less
You're a little too late to the party (Little too, little too late), heartbreaker
What doesn't kill you calls you six months later

'6 Months Later' finds Megan Moroney's charismatic, conversational vocals gliding across the energising instrumental, with the 'Tennessee Orange' hitmaker delivering each amusing punchline and cutting witticism with a metaphorical wink. The infectious, bright guitar riff that extends throughout the track combines with a simple, rhythmic drum pattern to give this a slightly nostalgic country feel.
"What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
And blonder and hotter
Makes you wonder what you even saw in him at all
What doesn't kill you always calls"
Megan Moroney concludes with an empowering flurry of affirmations here, as she uses the original phrase that inspired the song, "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger", adding cheekily, "And blonder and hotter". The line, "Makes you wonder" could be a callback to one of Moroney's earliest singles, 'Wonder', which she always dedicates to her best friend, Natalie King, and her partner, Alex Harp.
