Song DescriptionA electronic riff is played, slowly and soft as the song’s introduction melody, this sound is increased seconds after with the addition of bass and synth keyboards notes, giving the song a sexy feel. When the dubstep drum sequence starts, Magie sings the first strophe of the song too. During the first verse of the song there’re plenty of industrial and electronic effects, some of them in high tune and others in very low key.
Before the chorus there’s a stop melody moment, where nothing is spelled or played just to anticipate the strong and powerful chorus. The chorus structure is composed of pure dubstep beats with soma R&B drums inspired sequence. The song is mid tempo, making it very sexy and lazy ate the same time, but it is still strong and very dramatic too.
The second verse it’s almost like the first verse melody except the addition of a loud synth pop riff that only helps the song to become sexier than it was before. The second chorus has the same melodies as the first too, but behind the original melodies a dramatic violin sound can be heard, this mixed with Magie and Lilly’s voice transform the song in a great ballad.
There’s a break melody moment in the song, where the dubstep comes stronger and the girls vocals are totally distorted, so they can be used as sound effects to the strong dubstep break melody moment.
The last chorus of the song is just exactly the second chorus, the vocals are still the same but now it seems to be louder and more desperate then the girls were singing before. This is a great track overall, a highlight on the album for sure, it is strong and mid tempo, we all know that ElectroDeath are made of ballads too, but with this tune they transformed a ballad into something new and more contemporary on their own safe electronic territory.
The song lyrics are about discovering the truth behind an angel face, or a person that you thought you knew someday. So there’s this kind of talking the girls are having with their love interests when they’re saying that after all the lies they cannot be together anymore.
Lilly CommentsWe’re made of ballads too. I love this track, it was supposed to be slower than it is, but actually I think mISTER_b did a great job my slowing those dubstep beats. When we were writing songs for this album I told Magie that our fans wait a ballad from us, but when we got all the song together we did not feel like having a piano song in the album.
So we showed mISTER_b, the song in the piano and he said that the lyrics were strong enough to make a mid tempo song and also, why not using dubstep on it? We had no idea of what he was trying to do, so we let him come up with the song the day after, and so he did, he came with something more faster than we wanted but definitely we would make this song, a mid tempo song with dubstep.
We just talked a bit more and changed the tempo of the song and added some effects on it, and it ended up being what it is now. We feel so proud about all these songs.
Also the lyrics of this song is something to look for, we have this massive break up talk on it, like if one you’ll ever need to tell something for someone because you were cheated or fooled, you can totally sing ‘Lies’ for him or her. LOL
LyricsMagieLillyboth
Drop all your secrets on the table
So maybe I can taste the flavor
You have been lying to me all this time
And all I have felt is about to die
Did you think about the consequences?
Did you think this could be your last sentence?
I did everything to be make this happen
And now I know that I never had in heavenYou, hide from me inside your disguise
Disguise, disguise, disguise
I should perceive it was in front of my eyes
My eyes, my eyes
Please don’t, ever speak about me like if I was yours
When you only made me feel so insecure
Now there’s no time, I’m closing all the doors
I’m locking up my heart to later find the cure
I’m looking for a way to erase you
Something that would make again my heart pure
Baby I only asked you the simplest true
But you never gave me sure
Does it has something to do with your ego?
If you knew this would make me tingle
Believe when I’m telling you I regret
If I ever knew this would end up so bad
What do I have to do in this situation?
I think I have no choice but abdication
You didn’t have the rights to hurt me
I’ll hate you forever because of thisYou hide from me inside your disguise
Disguise, disguise, disguise
I should perceive it was in front of my eyes
My eyes, my eyes
Please don’t, ever speak about me like if I was yours
When you only made me feel so insecure
Now there’s no time, I’m closing all the doors
I’m locking up my heart to later find the cure
I’m looking for a way to erase you
Something that would make again my heart pure
Baby I only asked you the simplest true
But you never gave me sure
Please don’t, ever speak about me like if I was yours
When you only made me feel so insecure
Now there’s no time, I’m closing all the doors
I’m locking up my heart to later find the cure
I’m looking for a way to erase you
Something that would make again my heart pure
Baby I only asked you the simplest true
But you never gave me sure
