In the early hours of today, Selena Gomez unveiled her new single “Lose You To Love Me,” and fans are buzzing with speculation that the song serves as a poignant farewell to her high-profile ex, Justin Bieber. The lyrics appear to delve into her emotions surrounding their breakup, offering a raw glimpse into her heartache.
The opening lines reflect a sense of betrayal: “You promised the world, and I fell for it. I put you first, and you adored it.” Gomez candidly expresses the pain of a relationship that burned brightly but ultimately left her in the ashes. This release comes over a year after Selena and Justin’s tumultuous relationship concluded for good, followed closely by his quick engagement to Hailey Baldwin. Such swift transitions in the public eye can be particularly challenging, and it’s clear that Gomez felt the weight of it all.
Despite the heartbreak, the lyrics also convey a journey toward self-discovery. In a statement on Vevo, Gomez shared, “This song was inspired by many things that have happened in my life since releasing my last album. I want people to feel hope and know you will come out of this stronger.”
