Empty Room 04:41
Nothing to save In this cold empty room Nothing to save In this cold empty space So cold So cold This empty room Nothing to save In this cold empty heart Nothing to save In this cold empty space So cold So cold This empty room Nothing to save In this cold empty bed Nothing to save In this cold empty space So cold So cold This empty room

Memories 04:24
Going through the motions Restless mind, searching for a voice I lay in bed returning To the years I spent away from home A warmth inside arises Even when I feel the loneliness And distant memories go by Rushing through my head to be reborn I can't change the past What I said or what I felt I'm trying to stay true No matter what they say or do I'm going to be myself So I'm not waiting anymore To believe and to be free Away with the scars of yesterday Ahead is the dream of my life I treasure the things I lived with you And I hope you will be OK I shouldn't think so much Time goes fast, we have to carry on I'm longing for this feeling Of living and being happy on my own So many things undone That could be better, could be what I want If I keep doubting myself I'll never reach the place I want to be I can't change the past What I said or what I felt I'm trying to be true No matter what they say or do I'm going to be myself So I'm not waiting anymore To believe and to be free Away with the scars of yesterday Ahead is the dream of my life I treasure the things I lived with you And hope for the day to see you again You again

Free you think you are Need no friends outside not even God Nothing Blind are all the rest Kindness is a test Your heart is petrified Again Then how you're still breathing Then how your life has meaning Devoid of feelings Blackened soul, look to the sun And let the rays come in Blackened soul, look to the sun And cast those fears away A creep you always were Beneath the masked face Your biggest disgrace somehow Time is on your side Light you'll find inside I reaches far beyond Everything Then how you're still living Then how your life has meaning In silence screaming Blackened soul, look to the sun And let the rays come in Blackened soul, look to the sun And cast those fears away Blackened soul, look to the sun And let the rays come in Blackened soul, look to the sun Release yourself You're always thinking that you're worthless Getting lost inside a maze And if you want to keep on torturing yourself Your whole life will be gone before you know it So let the rays come in

Shadows 03:18
I put my heart into a box in the dark I left my soul in a distant cloud of shadows Nothing really matters now Nothing really matters now None of that really matters now 'Cause I left it all in the past None of that really matters now 'Cause I left it all in the past I left your photos in a box under my bed I left your memory in a distant cloud in the sky Nothing really matters now Nothing really matters now None of that really matters now 'Cause I left it all in the past None of that really matters now 'Cause I left it all in the past

Far away I've drifted from you Far away I've sailed Far away I've gone from you Far away I'm over you No, there is no No time left for us No, there is no No time left for us No, there is no No time left Not today, nor tomorrow Far away I've drifted from you Far away I've sailed Far away I've gone from you Far away I'm over you No, there is no No time left for us Uhhh Uhhh No, there is no No time left for us No, there is no No time left for us No, there is no No time left Not today, nor tomorrow

I'm alone at night Trying to piece my life together again I have a bunch of scars That bleed from time to time They make me suffer You show up from nowhere And ask me how I'm doing You say you miss the cat You surely miss him More than you miss me So I'll just wait until the day You stop caring I'm alone at night Trying to enjoy the peace and quiet I have a bunch of feelings They make me feel sad They make me hopeless You show up from nowhere But I can't block you from my life You act all nice and polite I play along wondering why So I'll just wait until the day You stop caring

about

My fourth solo album showcases songs that didn't necessarily need lyrics. The album is half instrumental, half songs with lyrics. There are instrumental songs that could be described as dreamy, melancholic and euphoric. There are also dark, tense and heavier instrumental moments. The songs with lyrics reflect personal life experiences and have a nostalgic and melancholic feel to them.
Overall, I would say this album is definitely more ethereal compared to my previous efforts so I thought naming it "A Dream Inside of a Dream" would be appropriate.
