Background and Writing
"My Delirium" was written by Ladyhawke, alongside Hannah Robinson and Pascal Gabriel, both of whom Ladyhawke worked with on her previous single. Ladyhawke later said she was looking for high-powered producers to collaborate with. Ladyhawke wrote "My Delirium" after suffering a lack of sleep due to jetlag and feeling a sense of homesickness. According to co-writer Robinson, 'My Delerium' and 'Dusk Till Dawn' were both written on their first and only session together. Ladyhawke, when describing her songwriting process, stated she tries "to keep simple hooky guitar riffs throughout the tracks..." and she "wanted to capture the 'happy sad' vibe that so many eighties classics had."
