"Leaving" is DEMI LOBOTOMY's single that they dropped in April of 2022. The song was created and dropped on Soundcloud! When asked about the backstory of their song this is what Demi was about to give us
"The backstory of the song is a vengeful ghost haunting their ex because they always said they could never go on without each other if something were to happen to the other... When the partner died..their lover didn't follow through with those promises, but instead immediately found someone new.
Within their lyrics you can hear the pain of what they would be going through. The song is in the perspective of the one that passed away and what their feelings would be thinking that they were 'betrayed.'
I follow right behind you But I still can't find you And you always said that You'd be right back
With these lyrics Demi shows how the couple talked about following the other in death if something would have happened, but it seems that something did happen and the other did not follow through with their promises.
I could draw you a picture To tell you that I love you Would you ever get it Or would it only haunt you
This author believes these are some of the most powerful lyrics in the song talking about how the ghost could write a letter to the one that's still alive. They could say that they still love you and that their partner wouldn't ever get it and would just continue living their lives.
But I'll make you fear me Midnight, glowing eyes So you know you're near me Floating through the background
This is where things get interesting in the lyrics. The ghost is finally realizing that their partner didn't follow through and is feeling vengeful. Glowing eyes and floating. This ghost is ready to haunt the hell out of their old lover.
Watch your fucking back now Yeah you can run But you'll never make it home
The lover is going to die by the hands of a vengeful ghost.
Demi did a fantastic job at blending the lyrics with the music in a complex and haunting beat. With the heavy electronic feel this song is a trip from beginning to end.
If you haven't yet go give this song a listen to and go show Demi Lobotomy some love on their soundcloud tracks! There are so many good ones and we full heartedly believe this is not the last time we'll be seeing Demi on SNAP! Keep your eyes and ears peeled ;)
