Details World Behind Closed Eyes World Behind Closed Eyes Sound dreamy and ethereal indie-soul, male vocal with a raw and vulnerable tenor, atmospheric synths, haunting guitar reverb, slow tempo, intimate and emotionally impactful, 72 bpm Lyrics Verse 1 Every time I close my eyes, she’s in my dreams, See-through me like a movie screen. In my mind, she’s holding my hand — feels like a plan, Whispers my name, and the world ignites. She makes me want to stay in the world behind closed eyes, But when I wake, she’s gone, and the silence bites. She’s the one, but she evades me all day — Just a dream I can’t let go, night after night. Chorus Oh, she only lives in the dark, Where the real world leaves its mark. I reach for her, but she’s not there — Just a breath, a shadow, a prayer. She only lives in the world I find When I leave the waking kind. Verse 2 I trace her voice in the quiet of the night, A flicker of warmth in the pale moonlight. She dances just beyond what I can hold, A story my heart keeps retelling, over and over, untold. The morning comes like a thief, cold and plain, Steals her smile, leaves me chasing the rain. I’d trade every sunrise just to see her again — Even if it’s only in my head, where she remains. Bridge Maybe she’s not real, or maybe I’m not awake — Could be the dream’s the truth, and this world’s the mistake. I don’t want to rise, don’t want to fight — Just let me stay where she feels right.
