	Story Behind the Song My second project, it was six months between starting and finishing it - most of the work of course happening in short spurts. I was working nights at a sleep clinic once a week when I wrote the lyrics - hence the song is centered on the subject of sleep. I guess the lyrics represent my thoughts as to what schizophrenia might be like. The chorus "This dream is mine" refers to the song itself... A creation I was truly proud of...and its mine! Technical details Starting with the echoing guitar at the beginning - created by recording the same riff on both L and R channels, a fraction of a second apart (by accident); I built the rest of the song around that riff. The rest of it is in the tradition of Oldfield and Underworld, building up layer on layer. Built primarily using Cakewalk Express Gold Lyrics Whispers in the dark Calling out to me No place to run No place to hide They follow me wherever I go x 4 I close my eyes and go to sleep Hoping my thoughts won't sink to deep Drowning my thoughts in a wave of sleep x 4 This dream is mine x 4 I awake in the morning The images...they haunt me I try to shake the feeling But the terror lingers on It follows me wherever I go x 4 This dream is mine x 4 No one to turn to No one to tell Forced to endure My own private hell I'm all alone with my thoughts And now I found I'm in too deep (x4) This dream is mine to fade
