Marisa And The Moths – have released the video for ”Devil” taken from their acclaimed second album ”What Doesn’t Kill You”

MARISA AND THE MOTHS have released the video for their track Devil, taken from their second album
What Doesn’t Kill You. The song portrays a story about falling in love again when you had previously
convinced yourself that you wouldn’t in order to protect yourself from getting hurt. It is about being
your own worst enemy and giving in to the temptation of a new love, even when you still don’t fully
trust your own judgement after experiencing a life-altering abusive relationship.

Speaking about the song, Marisa says: “This track is featured at the end of our second album and is a
journey which portrays the process of grief after the breakdown of an abusive relationship that I finally
escaped from. At the time, I was finally happy – single and enjoying exploring my sexuality and freedom –
but then I met someone. I was determined to make sure I wouldn’t get emotionally attached but, deep
down, I think I knew from the start that would happen and that scared me after what I went through. If
I’m honest, I’ve always been a hopeless romantic so, as much as I told myself it was ‘just sex’, in the end I
had to admit to myself the truth of what was happening and bring my protective walls down.

“The song is a reminder to stay open to new love and opportunities because, as scary as it might be to put
yourself out there and trust people again, if we don’t and we let our fear take over, then we are the only
ones to blame for standing in the way of our own happiness, not the people who hurt us in the past and
who aren’t here anymore to see it.”
