Story behind the song
This song is about an experience I had in high school. I was "stalked" by a classmate who thought, in his mind, we were an item. His persistence allowed me to put down in words and music this uncomfortable experience in my life.
Lyrics
Speak softly
I listen well
When you call my name
Like flyin'
I am higher than you
On an ordinary day
Chorus:
Dreamer boy, don't you see
Overdosing on fake reality
Play on and on in your mind...
Blue satin
The perfection and smoothest
Poison I'll never know
Fast forward
To despair in slow motion
Where what you see isn't there
Chorus:
Dreamer boy, don't you see
Overdosing on fake reality
Play on and on in your mind...
Self-inflicted
Love is one sided
Like dancing with the dead
Draw lines
In the deepest part of your heart
And blame me for your crime
