*"I loved him so much that I didn't care about time or money-I just wanted to see him. But when I realized the gap in how much we loved each other, everything suddenly felt meaningless. The words, 'I actually wanted to be with you longer,' were my way of pretending to be strong, and I turned that feeling into a song titled 'Truly a Waste of Love.'"
These are the words of ayaho, vocalist and guitarist of Lala, who wrote and composed the track.
Known for their emotionally charged love songs, Lala often portrays bold, strong-willed female protagonists navigating the highs and lows of romance.
In this latest release, that characteristic strength comes through in sharp, provocative lines like "Feel embarrassed when this plays on the radio, you idiot!"-a phrase that's both playful and cutting. Yet, behind the bravado lies a fragile heart-still wrestling with lingering feelings and unresolved emotions.
The track blends this emotional complexity with Lala's signature pop sound, capturing the bittersweet tension between pride and vulnerability.
A powerful anthem for anyone who has ever experienced love's contradictions, the song is set to strike a chord with listeners across all genders.
