Every night, when I was just five,
I would fight to keep conscious thoughts alive
As I drifted toward the sea of dreams
Kept my focus on the search for seams
Where’s the line that we somehow cross?
At the time, can we feel the loss
Of our senses as we sink into
Our own inside world that’s always new
Two lives that hit pause and play
One at night, another one in the day
When I wake, why can’t I just recall
What’s it’s like the moment I finally fall
Asleep? These days I comprehend
There’s no switch to signal the start or the end
And the space that’s in between the pair
Is a place where magic feels almost really there
As I start to doze
There’s a light I see though my eyes are closed
It may pulse or it might flicker fast
And illuminate a world so vast
Two lives that hit pause and play
One at night, another one in the day
When I wake, why can’t I just recall
What’s it’s like the moment I finally fall
Asleep? Asleep.
Feel at home on a movie set
Share a life with people I’ve never met
And it’s different almost every time
While the waking world is well-defined
Two lives that hit pause and play
One at night, another one in the day
When I wake, why can’t I just recall
What’s it’s like the moment I finally fall
Asleep? These days I comprehend
There’s no switch to signal the start or the end
And the space that’s in between the pair
Is a place where magic feels almost really there
When I wrote these songs, I didn’t have a band. I invited every musician I could think of to come learn them for a show in three weeks, and we ended up making a record! Day Dreems
Sparkling synthpop with an emphasis on high-wattage chords and the kind of melodies that burrow themselves deep in the brain. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 1, 2023
