Hypnagogia

from Kali Yuga Kama Sutra by Westerner

/

about

Awhile ago I became fascinated with dreams and their relationship to creativity. I became convinced that the non-corporeal space where dreams come from is also where creativity comes from. I began experimenting with lucid dreaming, and then I started having intense dreams, night terrors, and also I began dreaming songs. Often times they would come to me in the time between wake and sleep, or vice versa, the space called hypnagogia. I love in-between spaces so this was meaningful for me. The melody for this song came to me while in a hypnagogic state, so I dedicated the song to it.

lyrics

I hear the call from the other side
I slip below the water line
Dark visions dance inside my mind
Just like the skirt around your thighs

Take me away
Tell me a story
I won’t be back
Til the morning

When the sun goes down I feel the beat
With the full moon out I hit the street
Dark forests burn with umber light
Wild children dance with foreign gods

Take me away
Tell me a story
I won’t be back
Til the morning

Take me away
Tell me a story
I won’t be back
Til the morning

Take me away
Tell me a story
I won’t be back
Til the morning

Take me away
Tell me a story
