about
This song is the story of a dark, impressionistic, lofi, fever dream.
lyrics
He dreams in colors of a carousel,
like neon hearts spinning round and round.
Singing poems of an old tome,
transformed to burn like a marigold.
But your eyes are heavy now,
weighed down with a perfect frown
of dreams you scribbled down,
and the words became your vow.
It's simple but it's true,
I'm in a haze for you.
And in my shadow play,
we would dance the night away.
So rave on, dance beneath the moon,
like ghostly lovers in the blue.
Rave on, we're drawing down the moon,
like ghostly lovers through and through.
Amorous ocean kissed the sand,
from the misty haze into our hands.
Silhouettes echo our intent,
like neon hearts on their ascent.
But I'm wide awake now.
Neon hearts conceive a frown,
and they whisper you farewell,
in the colors of a carousel.
It's simple but it's true,
I'm in a haze for you.
And in my shadow play,
we would dance the night away.
So rave on, dance beneath the moon,
like ghostly lovers in the blue.
Rave on, we're drawing down the moon,
like ghostly lovers through and through.
like neon hearts spinning round and round.
Singing poems of an old tome,
transformed to burn like a marigold.
But your eyes are heavy now,
weighed down with a perfect frown
of dreams you scribbled down,
and the words became your vow.
It's simple but it's true,
I'm in a haze for you.
And in my shadow play,
we would dance the night away.
So rave on, dance beneath the moon,
like ghostly lovers in the blue.
Rave on, we're drawing down the moon,
like ghostly lovers through and through.
Amorous ocean kissed the sand,
from the misty haze into our hands.
Silhouettes echo our intent,
like neon hearts on their ascent.
But I'm wide awake now.
Neon hearts conceive a frown,
and they whisper you farewell,
in the colors of a carousel.
It's simple but it's true,
I'm in a haze for you.
And in my shadow play,
we would dance the night away.
So rave on, dance beneath the moon,
like ghostly lovers in the blue.
Rave on, we're drawing down the moon,
like ghostly lovers through and through.
