“It’s just about being there for each other and helping each other through scary times and anxiety,” Grande said of “Get Well Soon” during a Beats 1 interview with Ebro Darden . The singer went on to explain how the song speaks to larger themes of battling personal demons, anxiety, and intimate tragedies. The lyrics are transparent and honest; Grande hides nothing behind her words. “My life is so controlled by the what if's / (Girl, what’s wrong with you? Come back down) / Is there anybody else whose mind does this, mmm?” she sings in the second verse. In the refrain she leaves listeners with a message of hope and support. “Well here's one thing you can trust, yuh / It takes you and me to make us / One of those days you had enough, I'll be there.”
