“Lost in the Fire” is a collaboration between French DJ Gesaffelstein and Canadian singer The Weeknd.

On the song, Abel sings about his tumultuous relationship with girlfriend Bella Hadid, assuring her that he “can’t lose” her again. He also sings, in explicit detail, about his illustrious sex life with Bella and other lovers. The “fire” is the time period between their initial breakup and reconnection.

“Lost in the Fire” found additional interest when lyrics in Abel’s first verse were interpreted as shots at Drake.

The track was first teased by Gesaffelstein on January 7, 2019. Abel continued to tease the song on his social media over the next three days. The song ultimately debuted on the third episode of The Weeknd’s Beats 1 Radio show Memento Mori, which aired at midnight on January 11, 2019.
