Halsey Instagram – Thank you guys so much for such an amazing release week. I waited so long to put out this album. Ironically, I wrote it because I didn’t think I had much time to get these thoughts down/out. Then ended up waiting so long it hurt, to get it into your hands. My heart is heavy with all the stories and insight you have shared, with what the songs mean to you.
I wrote this album because I got sick, sure. But really I wrote it because I felt small, and weak, and decidedly unremarkable. It’s a hard truth, but an honest one. 5 albums deep and my relationship to songwriting has changed drastically over the years. I rarely think about these charts and numbers when I’m writing, but it would be a lie to say they don’t feel sweet if they arrive. It’s always an “if” and not a “when”. Which is my approach to nearly everything after the past couple of years.
I’m looking forward to all of the “if”s to come. I don’t know what they will look like, and if this medium is where they will be, but I hope to continue telling stories, because it’s the only thing in the world I know how to do with confidence. Thank you for being a part of them. 🤍⭐️ | Posted on 05/Nov/2024 03:02:11
