Grace VanderWaal premiered her third original song to be revealed during the 2019 "Ur So Beautiful" tour at Washington's in Fort Collins, CO, on Sept 2, 2019. The title of the song is "Poser"; it speaks of differing expectations of what the relationship between the protagonists might be, and the feeling of being abused.

The lyrics presented in this video were interpreted in a team effort on the VanderVault forum:

and in this comment thread on YouTube:

Especially the lyrics of the outro have proven to be a hard nut to crack. I have updated them now with the clearer text from the studio version. However, the ending of that edition is extended; so I'm still not entirely sure if that is what she actually sang on the tour.

No good quality material is available to me from the premiere, so I relied on the following sources:
Jeff_W's video from the performance at the Bluebird Theater in Denver provided stunningly sharp visuals:

John Mann's video from the Royale in Boston had some very atmospheric shots:

For the intro I used a photo off this article in the Twincities Media:

for the simple fact that she wore the same outfit at the Varsity Theater in Minneapolis as at Washington's where the song premiered. (It's also an exceptionally stunning photo.)
