Story Behind the Song
I had the title for a song idea called, "Asleep in the fields of peace". The music just came out of imagining what that song would sound like. The lyrics are like our dreams usually are... going from story to story, never knowing how long you get to watch each one, waking up not sure if it was real or what it meant.
Lyrics
Closer, drawn in, Step thru,
See just what my mind will bring me to see
Dead faces live, alternate endings begin
Every story is in code, all I do now is observe
(Chorus)
I’m asleep in the fields of peace
Drifting, quiet, weightless,
Looking forward without a compass to guide
This is my room, my personal space where I bloom
Pieces come when they come, puzzle is done as it’s done
(Chorus)
Someday I’ll be back here for good, although part of me never leaves
Susie, get out of bed, you’re late for work, get a move on.
Back in the life that I live, every noise, filling up my mind.
In my work cube, I’ll follow instruction and work myself into oblivion.
All my secrets will be told
All my answers will unfold
I will finally come home
Asleep in the fields of peace
