Lady Gaga opens up on mental illness , calls the music video of 911 ‘Poetry of Pain’

Lady Gaga has dropped the music video of her song 911 and states that it captures her experience with mental health.

Lady Gaga has come out to define her new song release 911 and the new music video that she just released. In the video, the 34-year-old singer can be seen waking up in the desert in a psychedelic world and the audience later understands that she was hallucinating the entire time. The video of the song ends on a note where Gaga hits back into the reality after being involved in a serious accident and cries out that she forgot her pills.

Gaga took it to her Instagram handle to explain “This short film is very personal to me, my experience with mental health and the way reality and dreams can interconnect to form heroes within us and all around us. I’d like to thank my director/filmmaker Tarsem for sharing a 25-year-old idea he had with me because my life story spoke so much to him.”

Further, Gaga went on thanking her team and said, “It’s been years since I felt so alive in my creativity to make together what we did with 911.” “Thank you little monsters,” she added.

The singer concluded stating, “I’m awake now, I can see you, I can feel you, thank you for believing in me when I was very afraid. Something that was once my real-life every day is now a film, a true story that is now the past and not the present. It’s the poetry of pain.”

The song was released long back in May, Gaga has now talked about the meaning of the song’s lyrics. “I wrote a song on Chromatica called 911, and it’s about an antipsychotic that I take, and it’s because I can’t always control things that my brain does, I know that. And I have to take medication to stop the process that occurs,” Gaga said in the interview with Apple Music.
