Is a “divorce album” on the horizon for Jessica Simpson?

That’s the question on many fans’ minds after Simpson dropped a new single, “Leave,” with lyrics that seemingly allude to a romantic partner’s infidelity.

“What we had was magic, now you made it tragic,” she sings on the country-tinged track, unveiled Friday. “Your weakness made me lonely, unholy matrimony ... Did you do to her what you did to me? Was she on her knees?”

The song’s chorus takes an even racier turn, with Simpson proclaiming: “I’d rather die than let you be inside me with her on your mind.”

In a pair of Instagram posts touting the release of “Leave” this week, Simpson described the song as “my most vulnerable track yet.”

“Evolvin’ as an artist means embracin’ the hard truths,” she wrote, later adding: “It feels good to finally share this piece of my heart with y’all.”

The unveiling of “Leave” comes just weeks after Simpson and husband Eric Johnson confirmed they’d split after 10 years of marriage.

“Eric and I have been living separately navigating a painful situation in our marriage,” Simpson said in a Jan. 14 statement. “Our children come first, and we are focusing on what is best for them.”

“We are grateful for all of the love and support that has been coming our way, and appreciate privacy right now as we work through this as a family,” she continued.

Johnson and Simpson share three children: Maxwell, 12, Ace, 11, and Birdie, 5.

“Leave” will appear on “Nashville Canyon: Part 1,” a five-song EP that marks Simpson’s first release of original music since her 2008 album, “Do You Know.” It’s due out March 21, with “Nashville Canyon: Part 2” set to follow this summer.

In a behind-the-scenes video posted Friday to YouTube, the singer and television personality said the song “was tapping into some stuff that was scary to tap into, but I needed to get it out.”

She went on to thank cowriters Lucie Silvas and John Osborne, who she said “gave me hope in a hard situation.”
