"Lost Leader" is the latest in a string of previous collaborative tracks from the upcoming album, following "Living With It" featuring Feist, and lead single and title track "Hurts Like Hell" featuring Buck Meek. The new single is a character study about a "broken-down frontman", on which Cornfield narrates a scene between the musician and the fan.
Discussing the new song, Cornfield explains: This is a hard song. But I also think it's a little bit funny. Tragicomic maybe? It's about a tormented frontman character whose personal demons and poor behaviour are getting the best of him. The story is told in second person but there are two perspectives represented here: the struggling artist and the disappointed fan. Christian Lee Hutson sings the part of the ‘lost leader,’ and though he only has a few lines he delivers the hell out of them.”
