about

The second single from Soybomb’s forthcoming «Sauvage» EP, «Delicate High» is a stomping, heartfelt, psychedelic anthem.

Whirling organs, trudging drums, and lead singer Beda Mächler's gently floating falsetto vocals combine to create a potent, bittersweet atmosphere. Bubbling up from undertones of melancholy and regret, «Delicate High» is a call to live in the moment and grasp the beauty of life.

Delivered with the lyricism and subtlety that epitomises Soybomb’s songwriting, «Delicate High» evokes a heady mix of mourning and childlike wonder, transporting you to a world of possibility.

lyrics

//LYRICS

Blue sky on the run
Another night has come undone
And there is nothing left to do
What have I become
I’m just a bag of scum
And it’s got nothing to do with you

Moving these rubber limbs
Right through the bloody dawn
A nauseating yawn
I look obscurely drawn
Glancing at my own reflection
Gazing through a mirror front
While pissing on the lawn

It’s such a delicate high
I keep on passing through
I feel as if I could die
After I take off my shoes

Something teased my guts
I developed a passion for drugs
It’s my only residue
A door that remains shut
And a key that doesn’t fit the spot
Ain’t no reason for concern

It’s such a delicate high
I keep on passing through
I feel as if I could die
After I take off my shoes
