[Intro: Deep, resonant slap bass solo with heavy echo and sparkling piano runs] [Verse: Minimalist and rhythmic, breathy vocals with wide stereo delay] The floor is made of velvet tide The walls are soft and open wide I’m drifting through a paper sky Where clockwork birds begin to fly [Chorus: Hypnotic and repetitive, soaring falsetto harmonies, lush synth pads] It’s like a dream in shades of blue Everything’s strange and nothing is true The more I run, the more I stay In the quiet light of a hollow day [Verse: Minimalist and rhythmic, breathy vocals with wide stereo delay] The stairs are winding into mist A secret place that don't exist I’m breathing in the amber air And feeling fingers in my hair [Chorus: Hypnotic and repetitive, soaring falsetto harmonies, lush synth pads] It’s like a dream in shades of blue Everything’s strange and nothing is true The more I run, the more I stay In the quiet light of a hollow day [Bridge] I reach for mirrors made of sand They melt away inside my hand The silence has a silver sound As I lift up off the heavy ground [Chorus: Hypnotic and repetitive, soaring falsetto harmonies, lush synth pads] It’s like a dream in shades of blue Everything’s strange and nothing is true The more I run, the more I stay In the quiet light of a hollow day [Outro: Extended instrumental groove with "space-age" sound effects and fading bass] Wait for the sun to break the spell Fading out where the shadows fell Just like a dream Just like a dream
