About This Track

'Winter' by BENEE is a 2020 alternative track from the album 'Hey u x'. The lyrics move through a claustrophobic state of unease, with zombies keeping someone from rest, a sense of being stared at, and a yearning for quiet and bedtime comfort. A creeping dislocation then breaks through, as the narrator admits, “Something here doesn't feel right”, before the unease turns bodily, with lines about skin burning. The overall effect is gothic and anxious, like a desire for sleep that cannot quite make it to morning.

"Winter" is a track by BENEE, from the album Hey u x, released 13th November 2020. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 10 articles about BENEE.

Lyrics

Winter

[Verse 1: BENEE]

Zombies tryna sleep

Zombies surround me

I'm out of place, I feel so weak

People starin' at me

I crave the quiet

I love the silence

Wanna be told a bedtime story

Then not wake up in the morning

[Pre-Chorus: BENEE]

Something here doesn't feel right

My skin burns, I start to cry

[Chorus: BENEE]

The winter suits me better (Ah-oh)

The winter suits me better (Uh-oh)

[Verse 2: Mallrat]

Where are you? Call me

Breathe that I was in your dream

Couldn't run and couldn't scream

Start collectin' all my teeth

But I've got bad news, babe

For your news front page

I swear I saw you right there

It wasn't just a nightmare

[Pre-Chorus: Mallrat]

But that's what happens when you find

A creature that was left outside

[Chorus: BENEE]

The winter suits me better (Ah-oh)

The winter suits me better (Uh-oh)

The winter suits me better (Ah-oh)

The winter suits me better (Uh-oh)

[Bridge: BENEE & Mallrat]

Ooh

Ooh

Ooh

Ooh

[Chorus: BENEE & Mallrat]

The winter suits me better (Ah-oh)

The winter suits me better (Uh-oh)

The winter suits me better (Ah-oh)

The winter suits me better (Uh-oh)

How The Last Dinner Party built an audience before ‘Nothing Matters’

The Last Dinner Party’s debut single arrived in April 2023, but 18 months of London gigs, support slots and widely watched bootlegs had already given the band a live following.

A rare bright point in a pretty damn difficult year, BENEE's arrival has been a serotonin shot in the arm. With her debut album finally here, the future looks brighter already.
