In an interview with Nylon, Hill said the song was inspired by someone she was seeing. "I was very reluctant to trust him after a traumatic relationship when I was 16 but this person made me feel I could trust him. Our relationship was very intense and we relied on each other for guidance. It was all lies though, as he completely stopped any sort of contact. I was fed up of being let down and left heartbroken and thus 'Losing' was born out of that frustration."[2]
