Fletcher describes herself as a "hopeless romantic," which can leave her vulnerable. In "Lead Me On," she sings about what it's like to be madly in love with someone who might not love her back. "At one listen you can hear 'Lead Me On' and think it's about taking breadcrumbs from somebody who's leading you on in a relationship and not giving you the full meal," she explained to Entertainment Tonight. "'I was born to love you, you were born wild and free' - that's the free-est version of myself. How she's left little seeds of intuition throughout my life to follow that path."
"Lead Me On" is the second single from Fletcher's second album, In Search Of The Antidote. She writes most of her own lyrics but gets a lot of help from various producers during the creative process. On this track, Jon Bellion collaborated with her along with Pete Nappi and The Monsters & Strangerz team. Fletcher describes the sound as "pop-rock influence and '90s singer-songwriter."
Alexandre Moors directed the music video, which was shot in Paris, a place Fletcher says "just lights my soul on fire." It takes place in an apartment where Fletcher walks among some intriguing characters, most memorably a woman tied up and hanging from a ceiling. This is the art of shibari, a kind of Japanese bondage. Fletcher says the image represents how love can be "gorgeous and painful at the same time."
