Plenty of musicians draw inspiration from their relationships, whether it is good or bad. Because Selena Gomez and The Weeknd are both successful artists, it was expected that they would write songs about each other. In 2018, The Weeknd dropped a seven-track album, “My Dear Melancholy,” which included several lyrics that fans speculated to be about Gomez, per Harpers Bazaar.
While several lyrics stood out to fans, one, in particular, got the attention of many. On the track “Call Out My Name,” The Weeknd shared some intimate details about a failed relationship. The lyric said, “I almost cut a piece of myself for your life/ Guess I was just another pit stop/ Til you made up your mind/ You just wasted my time.” During The Weeknd and Gomez’s relationship, the “Good For You” singer was dealing with a serious health issue. Gomez has long dealt with lupus, a “chronic long-term disease that can cause inflammation and pain in any part of your body,” per Lupus Foundation of America.
