Neon Delta Chains
Smoky electronic delta blues, male vocals. Swampy slide guitar sampled and looped over a slow, pulsing kick and sub-bass. Verse 1 starts dry and intimate with filtered vocal, then chorus widens with airy pads, gritty lead synth answering the vocal phrases, and stacked harmonies on the hook. Subtle vinyl crackle and claps in the bridge, then a late-song dropout where the vocal rides almost solo before the final, heavier chorus., delta blues, electronic

Lyrics
Verse 1
You call me lucky
Just to breathe your air
Then you choke on every favor
Say I put the poison there
You shine like silver
When the crowd leans in
But you drag me through your mirror
Cut me open with that grin
Chorus
You got me locked in your electric love
Neon delta chains around my heart
Every time I try to crawl away
You twist the story
Tear my name apart
Oh
I’m drowning in your desert flood
Begging just to feel the rain
Trapped inside your thunderstorm
Rattling these neon delta chains (yeah)
Verse 2
You say I’m crazy
When I find your lies
Then you cry about your childhood
Till I’m the villain in your eyes
You burn my bridges
Then you blame the smoke
Tell me I should be more grateful
For the sparks that left me broke
Chorus
You got me locked in your electric love
Neon delta chains around my heart
Every time I try to crawl away
You twist the story
Tear my name apart
Oh
I’m drowning in your desert flood
Begging just to feel the rain
Trapped inside your thunderstorm
Rattling these neon delta chains
Bridge
You say I’m nothing
Then say I’m all you’ve got
You kiss me with a kindness
Built on every guilt-filled shot
I hear that river calling
Through all your static rage
Tonight I’ll follow that cold
Clear sound
Walk right off your stage (hey)
Chorus
You had me locked in your electric love
Neon delta chains around my heart
Now I’m cutting through your crooked words
Let the truth tear us apart
I was drowning in your desert flood
Now I’m walking from the pain
Leaving you with your thunderstorm
I’m breaking these neon delta chains (oh)
Breaking these neon delta chains
