Halsey recently released her new single “The End” where she opens up about her health struggles, life, and death. In a social media post, she shared that she feels lucky to be alive and revealed that she wrote an album starting with this new single. The post included videos and images of Halsey in treatment while also tagging The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and the Lupus Research Alliance for donations.
The lyrics in “The End” reflect on Halsey’s past struggles with illness and the treatments she’s gone through in an emotional and honest way. One of the videos featured Halsey talking about feeling like an old lady and giving herself a deadline of two more years to be sick, hoping for a rebirth at thirty where she can be healthy, energized, and start fresh. This marks a new chapter in Halsey’s musical journey as it is the first single from her upcoming fifth studio album. Written by Halsey and produced by Halsey, Michael Uzowuru, and Alex G, “The End” is a testament to her resilience and determination to overcome adversity.
