Dreaming

A surreal, trance-tinged unravelling of sleep and self, Dreaming blurs the line between what’s imagined and what’s remembered. Lyrically haunted by memories that never happened and visuals that flicker like broken screens, the song spirals into the subconscious — asking, am I dreaming reality… or running from it? Opening with a hypnotic piano motif that feels like drifting off, the production gradually builds into a shadowy, cinematic dance track. Warped vocal chops, stuttered hooks, and synth textures swell and shimmer as the track gains momentum — peaking with ethereal vocals and a euphoric drop that feels both weightless and heavy with emotion. It ends with a sharp gasp… like waking from a dream you weren’t ready to leave.

Lyrics

Falling fast but I never land
Every touch dissolves like sand
Mmm
Faces flicker like broken screens
Running loops of nightmare scenes
Ahh

Am I dreaming reality?
Am I chasing infinity?
Hunted by the memories I didn’t make
But too scared to look behind
Haunted by the pictures I can’t escape
Am I in or out of mind?

Falling fast but I never land
Every touch dissolves like sand
Mmm
Faces flicker like broken screens
Running loops of nightmare scenes
Ahh

Am I dreaming reality?
Am I chasing infinity?
Hunted by the memories I didn’t make
But too scared to look behind
Haunted by the pictures I can’t escape
Am I in or out of mind?

Am I dreaming?
Am I dreaming?
Am I dreaming?

Am I dreaming reality?
Am I chasing infinity?
Hunted by the memories I didn’t make
But too scared to look behind
Haunted by the pictures I can’t escape
Am I in or out of mind?
