Maya Hawke Calls ‘Dark’ a ‘Cut and Dry’ Song About New Love
Maya Hawke details her anxiety and its overwhelming nature in her latest single, "Dark."
Accompanied with a video upon its release, the song follows last month’s “ Missing Out,” with both reflective tracks offering insight into her upcoming album, Chaos Angel, due May 31. When discussing the chorus, the artist recalled that it was “written a few years ago when I was going through a particularly debilitating bout of bedtime anxiety.” She continued, “I would lay in bed with the fear that if I let myself fall asleep, my brain would forget how to breathe and I would die in my sleep. Chaos Angel will feature 10 songs, during which Hawke “catalogs upheavals, revelations, foibles, and broken promises, all while navigating the patterns we repeat while growing older, wandering astray, and finding our way back to some core understanding of ourselves.”
