“Lies” is a track from Marina and the Diamonds’s sophomore studio album Electra Heart. Marina spoke on Amazon’s website about what this melancholic treatise on emotional disappointment describes:
"Trying to tell yourself a lover is right for you when you know he is nothing but."
The music video was released on July 17th, 2013.
In a track-by-track interview about Electra Heart, Marina said:
"'Lies' is a very personal record. I wrote half of it in the home of Bruce Springsteen. I was on tour and I was about to do a gig at a place called Stone Pony in New Jersey. I wrote the verse there. It’s obviously about a boy who, he was a bit of a coward. I didn’t really have a lot of respect for him and I was very angry about what happened between us so I wrote ‘Lies.’"
