Derde single en eerste die het emotionele aspect wat meer combineert met de kracht die rockmuziek kan uitstralen. Tears As Fuel klinkt op één of andere manier ook meer open en minder getormenteerd. Lemón laat vooral in het refrein de song openbloeien en we horen voor het eerst een erg sfeervolle gitaarsolo. Verder zijn er alle kenmerkende elementen van haar sound te horen. Misschien wel het sterkste van de drie vrijgegeven nieuwe songs.
Puntje van kritiek: de pr tekst moet echt niet refereren naar die andere dames wanneer het op de stem aankomt. Louise Lemón heeft een prachtig en eigen geluid. Anderzijds begrijp ik het vergelijken wel.
Lifetime of Tears komt er op 8 februari 2024 aan via Icons Creating Evil Art.

I started telling myself, If love is true, he’ll truly hurt you, cause why else would there only be these tears. When you have nothing, pain is something, so sometimes you’d rather hold on to that than be left with nothing. The musicians I play with went above and beyond incorporating their passion and making this pain come to life and become something that is love."
