Lady Gaga is gifting fans with a double feature, including the music video for her LG7 lead single – “Disease!” On Tuesday (October 29), the hitmaker rolled out the visual for the stormy single, which arrived last week.

It’s never been easy for me to face how I get seduced by chaos and turmoil. It makes me feel claustrophobic,” she wrote. She continued, explaining, “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,” she concluded. “Disease” follows her Joker: Folie a Deux standalone album Harlequin. Have you listened to it yet?
