about
Full of warmth and lightness, Dillon’s second single, „Cry Bebe“ from the accompanying album ‘‘6abotage‘‘, could easily be perceived as her most pop release. Following the oscillating lead single „<3core“, with which the Brazilian-born artist opened the new album cycle, Dillon presents another aspect of the uncompromising Klangwelt she and producer Alexis Troy have designed for the upcoming album.
Listening closely, the second harbinger appears lyrically ambivalent and stunned: „What goes up crashes down, for every high a comedown“, sings Dillon calmly in her usual brittle voice before asking, „Cry Bebe“ to take away the depth of her pain. Dillon’s second single also deals with pain and despair, but instead of fostering this, Troy’s production offers relief and serenity through contradictory driving beats and warm synths. It is precisely this emotional interplay that makes this artistic collaboration so contemporary and complex, for everything can and may coexist. The accompanying album „6abotage“, her first album statement since 2017, which Dillon describes as „a love letter, call for help and consequence all in one“, will be released in October.
lyrics
Cry bebe come my way
Take the depth away from the pain
Dry my tears, silence my fears
What goes up must come down
Cry bebe come my way
Take the depth away from the pain
Dry my tears, silence my fears
What goes up must come down
What goes up crashes down
For every high a comedown
Before the storm I was calm
Now breathing feels drowning
I feel like I'm drowning
In a sea of doubt
Lose my touch, lose my ground
With nobody around
I don't know how to
Step away from the edge
Close my eyes, hold my breath
Step away from the edge
Through the dark, take my hand
Cry bebe come my way
Take the depth away from the pain
Dry my tears, silence my fears
What goes up must come down
Cry bebe come my way
Take the depth away from the pain
Dry my tears, silence my fears
What goes up must come down
Lift me up, knock me down
A cry for help, a foreign sound
Before the storm I was calm
Now I breath in, I'm drowning
I breathe out, and I'm downing
In a sea of doubt
Lose my touch, lose my ground
With nobody around
I don't know how to
Step away from the edge
Close my eyes, hold my breath
Step away from the edge
Through the dark, hold my hand
Cry bebe come my way
Take the depth away from the pain
Dry my tears, silence my fears
What goes up must come down
Cry bebe come my way
Take the depth away from the pain
Dry my tears, silence my fears
