Lady Gaga has finally returned with new music, previewing her forthcoming new album, and now, she is sharing the spooky accompanying music video, and it's perfect for the Halloween season.
In the visual, Gaga fights different versions of herself, her inner demons, "dancing, morphing, running, purging" as noted in a message to fans about the song. On Instagram, she shared, "I think a lot about the relationship I have with my own inner demons. It’s never been easy for me to face how I get seduced by chaos and turmoil. It makes me feel claustrophobic."
Lady Gaga went on to explain, "'Disease' is about facing that fear, facing myself and my inner darkness, and realizing that sometimes I can’t win or escape the parts of myself that scare me. That I can try and run from them but they are still part of me and I can run and run but eventually I’ll meet that part of myself again, even if only for a moment. Dancing, morphing, running, purging. Again and again, back with myself. This integration is ultimately beautiful to me because it’s mine and I’ve learned to handle it. I am the conductor of my own symphony. I am every actor in the plays that are my art and my life. No matter how scary the question, the answers are inside of me. Essential, inextricable parts of what makes me me. I save myself by keeping going. I am the whole me, I am strong, and I am up for the challenge. Happy Halloween."
