about

The second addition to Mallavora’s debut EP is Deceiver, a single exposing the darker roots of the band. Taking influence from the likes of KoЯn and Mastodon alongside the band’s distinctive heavy groove and soaring vocal melodies, Deceiver explores the theme of domestic abuse. The lyrics depict someone trapped by toxic love, senselessly tortured by its duality. Anguish in armour: the track pulls between gloomy verse and overwhelming chorus, before a steep escalation to an intense finish.

lyrics

Look in his eyes
Love is a lie

She can’t hear anything
Her heads still ringing
The tears on her face
The last result of his embrace

And she can hear him calling
Feels her heart start stalling
She lets her life stay falling down
Without a sound

So wash away the truth
Except the one he told you
Give him your hand to hold
And let the fear within take control
Look in his eyes
Love is a lie
She can’t feel anything
Her heart’s still beating
The rings round her eyes
Revealing how she spent last night

Goes to where she was lying
To find her phone still dialling
But no ones replying how
Is she gonna leave him now?

You’ve gotta tell the truth
Accept the things he’s done to you
Break free from his hold
It’s your life babe, regain control

Look in his eyes
Love is a lie

Look in his eyes
Love is a lie
