On Friday, Sept. 6, the pop star, 29, shared the latest single from her forthcoming album The Great Impersonator, "Ego," alongside its accompanying music video.

In the visual, written and directed by Halsey, a femme version of the singer faces off with a masculine version of them as they eat dinner, chase one another around a house and try to kill one another. At the end of the video, the femme presenting version of Halsey hides in the back of their alter-ego's car and chokes them.

On the '90s alt-inspired track, the "Without Me" artist grapples with how she's been perceived by the public and her internal distress.

"I think that I should try to kill my ego / 'Cause if I don't, my ego might kill me / I'm all grown up but somehow lately /I'm acting like a f---ing baby / I'm really not as happy as I seem," they sing on the track.

Last month, Halsey announced their fifth studio LP The Great Impersonator was on its way.

They shared an eras-spanning trailer revealing the project would be a "confessional concept album."

In the teaser, Halsey confessed, "I really thought this album would be the last one I ever made."

The visual featured the "You Should Be Sad" artist in retro clothing and hairstyles, imagining who they might have been during previous time periods.

“What if I debuted in the early 2000s? The ’90s? The ’80s? The ’70s?” Halsey asked in a voiceover. “Am I still Halsey every time? In every timeline, do I still get sick? Do I become a mom?”

In the trailer, Halsey mirrors artists like Annie Lennox, David Bowie and Britney Spears — the latter of whom they interpolated in their recent single "Lucky."

The visual also featured snippets of unreleased songs from the three-time Grammy nominee capturing the aesthetic of different decades of music.

“If it all ended right now, is this a person you’d be proud to leave behind? Is it even you?” Halsey concluded.
