A powerful pop gem that captures the heartache of saying goodbye to someone who’s no longer the person you knew.
Singer-songwriter Avery Lynch is back with another emotionally charged release, this time delivering the soul-baring single “Dead to Me” alongside a moving music video. Known for her ability to turn heartbreak into harmony, Lynch has previously touched listeners with songs like “think about it,” “Rain,” and “the boys who don’t know what they want.”
On Instagram, Lynch described the track as a personal favorite, writing, “I hope you love ‘Dead to Me’!! This song is a favorite of mine, and I hope it will be yours too.”
“Dead to Me” is built around a gentle yet emotionally potent piano melody that sets the stage for a raw and reflective lyrical journey. With lines like “I knew you better than anyone,” and “It’s so weird that you’re not in the picture now,” the track explores the painful disorientation of watching someone you once loved become a stranger. The phrase “old you is done and dead to me, but not really” perfectly captures the confusing space between closure and lingering emotion.
Lynch’s soft, expressive vocals and vulnerable storytelling style make “Dead to Me” a standout pop gem—one that resonates with anyone who’s had to let go of the person someone used to be.
Whether you’re healing or simply in your feelings, “Dead to Me” offers a beautiful soundtrack for moving on while honoring what once was.
