Maty Noyes Bares Her Soul On Lighter Thief
Mississippi-born and LA-based singer-songwriter Maty Noyes bares her soul in her latest single, Lighter Thief, showcasing raw, honest, and vulnerable vocals over delicate instrumental accompaniments. The track explores complex emotions while offering a cathartic listening experience, delving into love, growth, and the relationships that shape us.
Lighter Thief is a song about loving the anti-hero, the bad boy who gives you just enough hope that he could turn good but ultimately disappoints you. It’s a song about accepting the uncertainty and danger of such a relationship because it makes you feel alive. It’s also a song about looking back and realizing how much you’ve grown and changed since you left that person behind. It’s not a song about missing them but celebrating your freedom and self-worth.
Lighter Thief is driven by a delicate instrumental accompaniment that completes Maty’s evocative vocals. The verses are soft and mellow, creating a sense of intimacy and vulnerability. The chorus is catchy and upbeat, conveying a sense of defiance and resilience. Maty sings: “Love you, lighter thief/Hot box the melodies, I’m just tryna slip by/So damn close to me, you barely notice me/Turns you on when I cry/So what if we get mad and fight?/As long as we make it alright/And to a better me, you would be dead to me/But I still keep you alive”. The song ends with a repeated “yeah”, showing Maty’s confidence and satisfaction.
Lighter Thief is the first single from Maty’s upcoming record, Rainbow Syndrome, soon to be released. It will feature five other dynamic tracks, and fans can expect more songs that reflect Maty’s personal journey and artistic vision.
