Lost in My Dreams
Skirmish: "LOST DREAM" (@corinnecurcio)Liner Notes
#acousticonetake #guywithguitar
A story of regret and a unforgiven soul.
I wrote the lyrics during the skirmish and the music three hours later. I recorded the demo 24 hours later.
Verse 3 was originally two verses, which I combined for the sake of length. I show the original skirmish lyrics at the bottom.
Lyrics
I could lie here and dream
I’ve got it made in the shade
Since the day
Someone said
I should lie
In the bed
That I made
I don’t know what I can do
I don’t know where to begin
I can sleep
Hide my face
And escape
From this place
That I’m in
I was lost in my dreams
Feeling no pain
But I lost my dream and now it seems
I’m lost again
I should breathe it all out
Free will feels like a curse
When you can’t
Let it go
Or you won’t
I don’t know
Which is worse
I was lost in my dreams
Feeling no pain
But I lost my dream and now it seems
I’m lost again
Show me the door
To the world where I made no mistakes
Can it be like before
I will do whatever it takes
But if there is a price
It was already paid
On the day
Someone said
I should lie
In the bed
That I made
I was lost in my dreams
Feeling no pain
But I lost my dream and now it seems
I’m lost again
——
ORIGINAL VERSES 3A–B
I got lost in the past
Free will sounds like a curse
When you can’t
Let it go
Or you won’t
I don’t know
Which is worse
So what’s done is done
I should breathe it all out
Lost the thread
Lost the track
Can’t go on
Can’t go back
Lost in doubt
