Every dream that I dream
Is leading me back to that place
I can imagine the scene
Can see the pain in your blank face

When I’m awake, I am strong
I can control my thoughts
But in my dreams I am fragile
I can’t take control

The reason why I end up here each night
is crystal clear: your god damn suicide
Why have you left without a last goodbye?
I'm here without you and only you know the reason why

How can I subscribe these questions in my mind?
Will I ever find - find my way out?
I am afraid all alone, 'cause I can't hear a sound
No sound at all
The silence is killing me
And I – I can't refrain
From seeing all these pictures in my head
How you were found
And still I hear no sound

Now I can sense the silence that you sought
In this dark forest of feelings I am caught
The bony boughs where no bird cares to sing
Are swallowed up by darkness - the bringer of a deadly undertaking

Will I ever find - find my way out?
I am afraid all alone, 'cause I can't hear a sound
No sound at all
The silence is killing me
And I – I can't refrain
From seeing all these pictures in my head
How you were found
And still I hear no sound

(Voice of Fear): Who woke me up?
Fear and sickness is what you get
You had better stop
I’m growing with your heartbeat
Finally awake again
Got lots of work to do
Do you sense my breath?
I am the fear within you

(Lost Person): I thought I could forget what happened, but
this evil voice is coming closer
I wish that I could hide, but I cannot
What do you want from me?

(Voice of Fear): You can’t resist me
And won’t get out of here
Oooaaah, by the way
Let’s come to the point
It is you I want
I’ll crush you from within
I am a rogue
And not your dreamcatcher

(Lost Person): I wish I could have been there on that day
I wish I would have had the chance to cry
But now these nightmares never end
These voices torture me:

I don’t really know the answer
I ask the voice, "Speak! Why do you pursue me?"
(Voice of Fear): I am the sickness, coldness, horror, fear
Don’t understand me? I will tell you, listen:

Hunting human beings
Staying with the weak ones
Causing trouble in their minds
I get my satisfaction

(Lost Person): Go away from me
Please, can you spare my thoughts?
I will pay you any price
if you keep my soul alive
I am too weak to resist you

(Voice of Fear): Hunting human beings
Staying with the weak ones
Causing trouble in their minds
I get my satisfaction
(x2)

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
