Dreams

I've recently been inspired by sleep, dreams, and nightmares. Lately, my imagination has been reeling in my slumbering state. My dreams, which I typically don't remember, have become increasingly vivid and seem to remain with me after I wake up. This has been happening every night for a few weeks now, and every morning I feel like the recollection of my dreams becomes progressively realistic and detailed, almost to the point of lucidness. Lucid dreaming has always fascinated me. Apparently, a strong ability to recall dreams is the first step to being able to lucid dream. I think I'm going to start a dream journal to track the nightly journeys I embark in my mind.

Dreams - Fleetwood Mac
Now here I go again
I see the crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself
It's only me who wants to wrap around your dreams and
Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?

Sleeping Lessons - The Shins

And glow

Glow, melt and flow

Eviscerate your fragile frame

And spill it out in the ragged floor

A thousand different versions of yourself

We Used To Wait - Arcade Fire

I used to write

I used to write letters 

I used to sign my name

I used to sleep at night

Before the flashing light settled deep in my brain

Good Ol' Fashion Nightmare - Matt & Kim

Ahh ahhh ahh ahh

Like a good ol’ fashion nightmare

Ahh ahh ahh ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhh ahh

Sleep Tonight - Stars

We dont want to sleep tonight

Still young like that I count the lines

Beside your mouth that smiles now

My arms reach up as you go down

With buried heads we both forget

All of the past and its regret

Wind picks up, the window shakes

We wont hear the morning break

Sleepyhead - Passion Pit

And you said

It was like fire around the brim

Burning solid, burning thin the burning rim

Like stars burning holes right through the dark

You gave fire like saltwater into my eyes

You were an inch from the edge of this bed

I drive you back a sleepyhead, sleepyhead

Dreams - The Cranberries

And oh, my dreams

It's never quite as it seems

'Cause you're a dream to me

Dream to me
