Marcela Bovio - Saboteurs

Copied!

They say that I
Have gone astray
They say no one
Will love me this way
And that I shouldn't hope someone
Will rescue me

I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do

They swear to know
What's best for me
They say I should
Tear up my skin
And let the anguish trickle through
To bring me release

I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do

Who let them in?
Must have been asleep
Spies, saboteurs
Mumbling madness in my ear

They're gathering
Plotting from within
To discreate
All I worked so hard to build

Who let you in?!
Who'd believe your lies?
Spies, saboteurs
Adversaries in disguise

Doubt and distress
Darkening my eyes
I want you gone!
I want you gone!

(oh oh oh)

Compromised emotions
They paint a tale from long ago
With profound devotion
I'll clear this mess
And repair the damage done

Release Date: January 01, 2016

Biography

edit bio

Marcela Alejandra Bovio García (born October 17, 1979) is a Mexican singer and violinist who is currently a member of the Dutch symphonic death metal band MaYaN.

In 1995, she joined Hydra, a Mexican metal band, singing and playing violin. In 1999, they released an EP called “Bosquejo”. After leaving them, Bovio co-founded the Mexican experimental rock band Elfonía in 2001, which was active until 2006.

In 2003, she responded to a “casting call” by Dutch musician Arjen Anthony Lucassen for relatively unknown singers, who chose her to play the character of Wife in the Ayreon album “The Human Equation”. In 2005, he also picked her for his new project, the progressive metal band Stream of Passion. The band released their debut album Embrace the Storm the same year, with Bovio acting as sole lyricist. Lucassen left the band to continue on its own in 2007; this resulted in Bovio acting as band leader and one of the main songwriters (including for composition) on subsequent albums. Stream of Passion amicably disbanded in December 2016.

In September 2016, Bovio independently released her first solo album, Unprecedented, a classical album consisting of original songs she wrote; it was followed by Through Your Eyes in 2018. She joined MaYaN as a full-time member in 2017, after regular collaborations with the band since 2013. She regularly acts as backing vocalist for other bands, notably Epica and The Gentle Storm, and was also one of the founding members of VUUR in 2016.
