Troye Sivan<\/a> has returned with new music earlier than planned. The pop star released the brooding new single \u201cTake Yourself Home\u201d on Wednesday \u2014 and it takes on timely topics.<\/p>\n

The moody track is a darker sonic take on the synth-pop Sivan has been doing for years; it was done in collaboration with Leland, Tayla Parx and Oscar G\u00f6rres. On the song, Sivan sings about being \u201ctired of the city\u201d and wanting to go somewhere prettier and more welcoming. \u201cAnd happiness\/Is right there where you lost it\/When you took the bet\/Counting all the losses that you can\u2019t collect\/Got everything and nothing in my life,\u201d he sings.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2018Take Yourself Home\u2019 is one of my favorite songs I\u2019ve ever written,\u201d Sivan said in a statement. \u201cThe song is kind of a pep talk with yourself and the place you\u2019re from. Grappling with your place in the world. I write these songs as a diary entry, then as life and places change and relationships change, songs can take on a new meaning entirely. Clearly that has happened for this song, with what is going on in the world right now. <\/p>\n

Sivan is using the money he would have spent on visuals for his new single to help out freelancers who are currently struggling to make ends meet in the wake of COVID-19. He put out an open call on Instagram<\/a> for graphic designers and animation artists to hit him up for paid work. <\/p>\n

Sivan has released two full-length albums, including 2018\u2019s Bloom<\/em>. Since the release of his last LP, he has worked with Charli XCX (\u201c1999\u201d) and Lauv (\u201cI\u2019m So Tired\u2026\u201d). He also received a Golden Globe nomination in 2019 for the song \u201cRevelation\u201d with J\u00f3nsi, which appeared in the film Boy Erased<\/em>.  <\/p>\n
