“You called it love, I called it a lesson.” That’s LYRA serving broken-relationship knowledge in the Cork-born, Brighton-based artist’s pulsating new single “The Ending.” Hitting the streams earlier this month (October 4), this electric alt-pop jam details the moment LYRA decided to let go of her broken relationship — and she and the listener have both come out on the other side with a newfound appreciation and awareness.
“I finally decided to stop letting thoughts like ‘What if I had changed? What if I had said something different? What if I had waited? What if I hadn’t booked that flight home? What if he finds someone else?’ consume my life,” LYRA admits. “It was time to call it for what it was and put an end to my romantic mind wishing it was something else.”
Produced by Phil Cook (Lewis Capaldi, Calum Scott, YUNGBLUD, Ellie Goulding), the commanding “The Ending” is fit for both a night out at the clubs or some time in spent dancing on our own. Fire up this sonic compass for love and life below.
