Listen to Billie Eilish's heartbreaking new song that references Roe v. Wade and 'movie stars on trial'

• Billie Eilish surprise-released two new tracks on Thursday in an EP titled "Guitar Songs."

• In the first song, "TV," she references current events while singing about a taxing relationship.

• "The internet's gone wild watching movie stars on trial / While they're overturning Roe v. Wade."

Billie Eilish surprise-released two new tracks on Thursday in an EP titled "Guitar Songs" — including one that sparked headlines when it was teased last month.

The 20-year-old Grammy winner previewed "TV" on June 7 during her tour stop in Manchester, England.

"This is one we just wrote and we just wanted to play for you," she told the crowd, referring to herself and her brother-slash-collaborator Finneas O'Connell.

The acoustic ballad song paints a portrait of the singer in an exhausting and unhealthy relationship.

Eilish makes references to self-destructive instincts, including drowning herself "so I don't have to watch you leave" and starving herself "just because you're mad at me."

In the second verse, she also references two current events that have captivated the nation in recent months: the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, the 50-year-old case that federally legalized abortions, and Johnny Depp's defamation trial against Amber Heard.

"And I'll be in denial for at least a little while / What about the plans we made?" she sings. "The internet's gone wild watching movie stars on trial / While they're overturning Roe v. Wade."

Eilish performed the song just one week after jurors found both Depp and Heard liable for defamation against each other.

Eilish offered some insight into the lyrics during a recent interview with NME.

"I was in this state of depression, losing my own rights to my own body, and then I'd go on the internet and it would be people giving their take on this trial," she said. "Who fucking gives a fuck? Women are losing rights for their bodies, so why are we talking about celebrities' divorce trials? Who gives a shit?"

She added: "Let them figure it out on their own. The internet bothers the shit out of me sometimes."

According to NME, the siblings wrote the song "in the midst of a recent split with actor Matthew Tyler Vorce," whom Eilish reportedly dated for about one year. Vorce, 30, confirmed their breakup in late May.
