Sloan’s newest single, “Lie,” centers around a one-sided romantic relationship. While love is withering away, the protagonist refuses to let go of the past. Sloan sings, “I want you to / Lie, lie / Right to my face / I want you to put your hands on my waist / Can we just dance ’til the sky’s awake? / ‘Cause I really can’t get my heart broken tonight.”
Despite the track’s reflective and intricate lyrics, “Lie” contains a dynamic steady beat and encourages the listener to ponder their lives. In “Lie,” Sloan uses both poetic and musical meter to give the song a nostalgic feel. She also highlights convoluted human emotions and not wanting to let go of someone who doesn’t love them back.
