Halsey posted a series of videos and images on Instagram documenting her journey to the hospital and the different stages of treatment. “Simply put, I’m lucky to be alive. Simply put, I also wrote an album,” the 29-year-old singer said. You also said that the new phase “starts with ‘The End’ [o fim]now available.”
The acoustic ballad begins with Halsey singing, “Every two years a doctor tells me I’m sick / They bring a new solution / And then they apply it to me / First it was my brain, then an aching skeleton.” The song addresses the singer’s perspective on mortality, with lines such as: “When I met you, I said I’d never die / But the joke was always on me, ’cause I’m fighting against time.”
Reporting on social media
The song appears among videos showing the artist receiving hospital treatment and recording in the studio.
In one of the videos, Halsey appears massaging her legs as she comments: “Sometimes I feel like an old woman. I’ve decided I’m going to dedicate the next two years to recovery… I’m being reborn and I’m not going to get sick anymore. I’m determined to have incredible energy and live my 30s to the fullest.”
