Mitski found the chorus to her latest hit “My Love Mine All Mine” during a grocery store run. “I was walking home with groceries and it was really heavy," she tells GENIUS. "I tend to make up songs in my head when I really want to dissociate from the moment. So I was singing to myself and I was like, ‘Wait a minute. This is actually good!’ Once I got home, I put the groceries down and I recorded everything."

What began as a fun song to escape the grocery store blues took on a deeper meaning as it evolved. “There was something about realizing that my love is mine,” she adds. “Nothing else is mine. Everything else, including myself, is going to deteriorate and go away. But as long as I hold onto my love, no one can take it from me…It’s just this unlimited resource.”

On today’s episode of VERIFIED, Mitski explains the meaning behind this deeply evocative track, but also expounds on love, death, and the moon’s eternal light. “My Love Mine All Mine” appears on Mitski’s newest album, “The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We.”
