Songfacts®:

  • Katy wrote this song about an ex who broke her heart. She told The Sun: "'Go Away' is about one person, though I've never asked him if he knows it's about him. That would be terrifying. It's hard enough to put it out there how you are feeling without them knowing, but I guess I can't hide all the time."
