Zerllia is turning whispers into anthems with the release of her newest single — a capricious, emotionally-charged track that dives headfirst into the quiet chaos of uncovering the truth. Inspired by WA’s relentless South Westerly winds and the haunting storytelling of artists like Billie Eilish and Michael Jackson, this song is one of her fastest creations to date — and perhaps one of her most honest.

“There was this one day where I could almost hear people talking through the wind,” she recalls. “I was already deep in my feels listening to “Birds of a Feather”, and suddenly it just all came together. Within an hour, the whole thing was written.”

There’s no single story behind the lyrics — rather, a collage of situationships, friendships, and fractured connections where words were twisted and the truth eventually came out. “We’ve all been there — when someone lies, and you know something’s off. Eventually, the truth always breaks through. This track is that moment, that release.”

One particularly raw memory came from a past relationship where a small lie cracked open something bigger. “He said he was home. Turns out, he was out clubbing, at the strip club — the whole thing. I didn’t even have to dig, it just came out during an argument. That moment stuck with me, and you can feel it in the song.”

Blending emotionally-charged lyricism with RnB pop sensibility, the single captures the heat of betrayal with a cool, haunting edge. Written during a freezing WA winter — her first after moving from tropical Queensland — the track took shape as she sat curled up next to a tiny wall heater, listening to “Smooth Criminal” and “Birds of a Feather” on repeat. “I even used a pre-chorus I wrote for a totally different song — but it just fit so perfectly, it was meant to be.”

The single forms a crucial chapter in Zerllia’s upcoming EP, a carefully woven storyline tracing the rise and rinse of a toxic relationship. “This song marks a turning point in the narrative — where illusions fall away, and truth takes center stage. It’s not about rage, it’s about release.”

Bold, honest, and sonically compelling, this track is a cold dose of reality wrapped in moody pop — and it’s bound to resonate with anyone who’s ever learned the hard way: you can only hide the truth for so long.
