Of the Night is the leading track on this debut EP 'Thoughts on a Dream' and explores the craving to live through your dreams rather than reality, but also the thoughts and feelings that dreams can leave you with...
lyrics
If I could stop making all my decisions in my sleep, and calling after you
There's not a silent star above me that could take a pill and weep,
For they will stay awake and be untrue.
And forever after, avert disaster before I close the door,
I wish I knew the answer before I pass up a way to something more.
You say there's no answers in the dark, but I find the way to who I was
Counting every second of the night, until I take my breath in the sunlight...
And when the time is pouring in it fills the spaces in between
And touches every corner.
But the beauty of a dream is that it moves so easily
Without an age or order.
And it takes me back to a moment, down where time never meant much to me.
So if you let me sleep, I can return, retreat to that sea.
You say there's no answers in the dark, but I find the way to who I was
Counting every second of the night, Until I take my breath in the sunlight.
