Soaked Lyrics
[Intro]
Ooh, ooh
[Verse 1]
My tongue is sealed within my mouth
These certain words, they can't come out
These thoughts are walking on their own
Dancing around with no control
[Pre-Chorus]
I know what I did to you was wrong
Hence why I've kept it for this long
Secrets have been brewing up a storm
Did not expect it to transform
[Chorus]
Soaked up in my brain
For another day
These things I'm tryna say
Get drenched and swept away, that's the truth
Soaked up in my brain
Don't know what to say
Something about you, boy
You soak up half my brain, yes you do (Ooh, ooh)
Something about you, boy
You soak up half my brain
[Verse 2]
You look at me like I hit you (Ooh, ooh)
Stole all your things then left you bruised (Ooh, ooh)
Look what I've got myself into (Ooh, ooh)
My words are stuck, my body too (Ooh, ooh)
[Pre-Chorus]
I know what I did to you was wrong (know what I did to you was wrong)
Hence why I've kept it for this long (So long, so long)
Secrets have been brewing up a storm (A storm)
Did not expect it to transform
[Chorus]
Soaked up in my brain
For another day
These things I'm tryna say
Get drenched and swept away, that's the truth
Soaked up in my brain
Don't know what to say
Something about you, boy
You soak up half my brain, yes you do (Ooh, ooh)
Something about you, boy
You soak up half my brain, yes you do (Ooh, ooh)
Something about you, boy
You soak up half my brain, yes you do
[Post-Chorus]
I know what I did to you was wrong (Know what I did to you was wrong)
Hence why I've kept it for this long (So long, so long)
Secrets have been brewing up a storm (A storm)
Did not expect it to transform (Transform)
[Chorus]
Soaked up in my brain
For another day
These things I'm tryna say
Get drenched and swept away, that's the truth
Soaked up in my brain
Don't know what to say
Something about you, boy
You soak up half my brain, yes you do (Ooh, ooh)
Something about you, boy
You soak up half my brain, yes you do (Ooh, ooh)
Something about you, boy
You soak up half my brain, yes you do
[Outro]
(Ooh, ooh)

What did BENEE say about "Soaked"?
“Soaked” is a very personal song. It’s about a specific time in my life where I felt very vulnerable. I found it hard to actually talk about it to anyone. It’s about that feeling of regret you have looking back on what you should have said but didn’t at a pivotal moment. This makes it stand out for...
Is that Benee on the cover?
Yes! She explained to Artist 1 On 1:
I was sitting in the studio one day and Paul (her manager) was like ‘what are we going to do about the art?’ and I scrolled through my photos on my computer and found this baby picture of me and I bought it on to the photo editor where you can saturate the image...
Was Benee expecting this track to become such a hit?
No, I did not expect that at all. We released it as my second single. “Tough Guy” was pretty low key, chill. I was planning what I was gonna release, and it was one of those songs that I had that I was like, “Ok, I like this song and I feel like maybe it’s a bore cause it’s like too much of that.” B...
Does this track have any certifications?
Yes, it is certified Platinum x2 in New Zealand by RMNZ.
