The track captures the familiar space between empowerment and regret, when choices feel heavier under the haze of tired thoughts and tangled emotions.
Built on a dark pop backdrop of pulsing beats and atmospheric production, ‘4am (Back In His Bed)’ places CATTY’s vocals front and centre. Her delivery is strikingly vulnerable, leaning into both the humour and heartbreak of the story she tells. Lyrics like “A couple of drinks in, then that’s when you come running” and “With no one around us, you’re finally honest” are between biting one-liners and confessional admissions, creating a balance that feels as sharp as it is relatable.
What makes ‘4am (Back In His Bed)’ stand out is its emotional honesty. It doesn’t shy away from the contradictions of craving attention, even when you know it’s fleeting. CATTY leans into that push and pull, singing from a place of raw self-awareness that many listeners will recognise. The track doesn’t glamorise the mess, it holds it up to the light and finds strength in the admission.
With its moody textures, cutting lyrics, and unflinching honesty, ‘4am (Back In His Bed)’ is a powerful statement from CATTY. It’s a song for anyone who has wrestled with their own midnight decisions and come out stronger for them.
