about

“Flood” is a return to Maella’s roots as a singer-songwriter. A tender swelling ballad that centres around her stunning layered vocals. The subtle and considered production gives Maella space to explore her deep overwhelming feelings, each phrase adding a new layer: scattered drums, strings and synths. The track builds as each drop of rain falls until the finale hits you like a flood. It’s symbolic of the dark days of depression, a slow build of emotions that intensifies over time until they fill your body and pour out of you, yet it's a song of hope - knowing you’ll be better and ready to dance once again.

lyrics

I don’t think
It’s right
To lean on your shoulder
So much
I’ve been
A lot

Can we start again?

The feelings always go away
I want to be better today
Will you forgive me?
Everytime it

Hits me like a flood
Don’t feel like I am enough
I know the mornings are rough
But I guess it’s in my blood
But I won’t let that decide
I want a new state of mind

I don’t like myself
Losing control
Over words
I say
That hurt
Both you and I

Know the feelings go away
I want to be happy again
Do you believe me?
Everytime it

Hits me like a flood
Don’t feel like I am enough
I know the mornings are rough
But I guess it’s in my blood
But I won’t let that decide
I want a new state of mind

Sky’s turning red
Thunder in my head
Keeps raining on me
Keeps raining on me

And it hit me like a flood
Don’t feel like I am enough
I know the mornings are rough
But I guess it’s in my blood
But I won’t let that decide
I want a new state of mind

Hits me like a flood

about

Maella London, UK

Growing up in Prague, the daughter of a local jazz musician, Maella would often visit the dimly lit, smoke-filled basement jazz bars in the city centre. Watching bands through a glowing haze of cigarette smoke that thickened throughout the night, she found herself feeling like she was listening alone, trapped in the aura of the music. ... more
