I wrote the first verse of lyrics while laying in my bed in the very early morning before going to sleep. Around the time of writing this song, I kept having vivid dreams that I would almost immediately forget, but would leave me sad, with tears in my eyes.
The second verse is about my thoughts in changing schools and majors. I was doubting my decision from the start but decided it was just an all or nothing commitment that I had to make.
Morpheus is the personification of sleep and dreaming. He represents the bittersweet feelings of my dreams.
lyrics
It’s on nights like these,
That I can’t fall asleep.
My mind is full of memories,
And I can’t get them out of my head.
Shedding tears I fall asleep,
To restless dreams of everything,
I want and have and left it all behind.
You are in my mind,
Every time I close my eyes.
I don’t know where to go,
But I think I’m moving forward anyway.
Shadows of doubts cross my mind,
But I can’t stop,
But I can’t stop,
But I can’t stop to think about it now.
