“Dreams don’t have an expiry date and that’s been a really important lesson for me. That’s why it’s such a prominent theme on the album,” the excerpt began.
The 36-year-old went on to reflect on the highs and lows of her early 20s.
“When you’re in your twenties, your early twenties in particular, there’s a mixture of invincibility and excitement as you embark on adulthood, but there’s an innocence underlying it all, too,” Delta penned.
“What I wanted to portray through this record is the view from the next level; from the perspective of having lived it and breathed it.”
“There’s an innocence underlying it all.”
