Lyrics

Dreaming is a common experience for us while being asleep. Some dreams are blurred. Some are comparatively clearer and more distinctly felt. I once had this dream. I was standing by the edge of a cliff, staring at a blue planet surrounded by clouds, and a distant star. There was a mesmeric ambiance all around which kept me transfixed for a while, until the star exploded, transforming into an incandescent fireball. I woke up shortly afterwards; but I remember saying to myself in my dream that this is something that I would see for real in the afterlife. The remnants of the dream in my memories held my heart and mind in captivity for days, and I decided to compose an instrumental that would aptly depict its essence. This decision, in course of time, paved the way for the making of this album.
