Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Lies. By Songfacts®.

Marina said on Amazon's website that this melancholic treatise on emotional disappointment is about, "trying to tell yourself a lover is right for you when you know he is nothing but."

Marina told The Sun that Electra Heart is a collection that, "personifies love and what you go through when your heart gets broken." She added that one of the inspirations for the album was a failed relationship: "I'm not the type of girl who writes songs like 'Baby, I really love you, please come back,' she said. "I was more, 'I hope you get screwed over by another girl!'
When you are hurt by someone, you go through stages of how you feel. At the beginning you feel really angry and you literally want to kill them. But being like that makes you undesirable and bitter. I felt unloved by someone. I was a walking broken heart and I was angry. That's why some of the songs are really bitchy.
No one wants to look weak. I was upset but I'd moved on. This record is more of an anti- break-up record."
