Atarayo – Liar (Music Video)

A song that tightens your chest with its heartrending vocals.

The complex emotions of a man who’s been told it’s over are woven in delicate words.

It was the other person who confessed their love, yet it’s also the other person who ends it—such a contradiction.

They should have truly loved each other, but before they knew it, that love turned into hatred.

The song captures the fragility of such a romance.

Also talked about as an answer song to Atarayo’s signature track “I’ll Forget Your Quietness in October,” it was included on the October 2021 EP “Before Dawn.” It’s a bittersweet yet warm piece that gently accompanies those bearing the pain of heartbreak.
