It’s the second Toronto-based video he’s dropped this month.

The Weeknd just dropped an eerie new video for “Secrets,” a cut off his hit 2016 album Starboy. It’s directed by Pedro Martin-Calero, which marks his first collab with the XO boss.

The “Secrets” video is set in the Toronto Reference Library, a famous public landmark in Toronto designed by Canadian architect Raymond Moriyama. It’s the second video this month that he’s shot in Toronto, following his Future collab “Coming Out Strong.”

“Secrets” is co-produced by The Weeknd, Doc McKinney, and Cirkut; it features a sample of Tears for Fears‘ 1983 track “Pale Shelter” and an interpolation of The Romantics“Talking in Your Sleep.”

Throughout the track, The Weeknd sings about a girl that he suspects is not being faithful:

It’s a lie, a lie
I catch you every time
In your lust, your lust
Every time you close your eyes
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you’re talkin' in your sleep
