Eighteen-year-old Ava Earl is ready to break free from a toxic relationship in her new song "Forever Girl." The song's protagonist is dreaming of leaving an abusive partner -- and, fortunately, by lyrics' end, she's seized the opportunity to run.
"I draw inspiration from being around people. Since I don't have that right now -- none of us do -- I've been making up scenarios," Earl explains of the song's origins. The story she dreamed up for "Forever Girl" is far from a picture-perfect one, though: At first, things seem okay, but listeners will quickly get the idea that this relationship isn't healthy.
