For people in their 30s and up who miss how wild, fun, and dumb they used to be—it includes a wake-up call at the end. Recorded in Tulsa and mastered by Grammy-winner Emerson Mancini, it blends nostalgia with an energetic edge and a brooding, wistful indie pop rock sound.
Written by Abby London
Produced by Cade Roberts

At its core, What Happened to Me reflects on the passage of time and self-perception, exploring the contrast between how we remember our past and how it truly felt. With poignant lyrics like, "What happened to me? I used to be so carefree and fun. What happened to me? I used to be so naive and dumb," London captures the universal experience of looking back on youth with both fondness and regret.

It’s been 17 years, the touch, the rush, the trust, I want it back
All of my fears I’d take em on to have it all back
The lust for life the way I’d feel like I was flying
Bussing around kissing and tripping and smiling
Yeah I used to have fire
Yeah for life and love I had more desire
What happened to me I used to be so carefree and fun
What happened to me I used to be so naïve and dumb
What happened to me I used to get so lost and still run
What happened to me
I miss the fire, the fire that I used to burn
I miss the fire the fire that I used to learn
The fate and the miles they don’t look like me
The motions and trials I miss them setting me free
What happened to me I used to be so carefree and fun
What happened to me I used to be so naïve and dumb
I’m feeling envy for who I was
I should have taken more risks
I should have fought for love
Sooner or later you’ll regret what you haven’t done
Sooner or later you’ll regret losing someone
Yeah I used to have fire
Yeah for life and love I had more desire
What happened to me I used to be so carefree and fun
What happened to me I used to be so naïve and dumb
What happened to me I used to get so lost and still run
What happened to me
Whose fault is it if my life is boring
What is there to love now that I’m ignoring
