Visions of Morpheus Lost Within
Lost Within, being the title track, encompasses the essence of the Greek God of Dreams, Morpheus. We focus more so on the nightmare aspect of dreams and certainly from the perspective of someone who frequently has night terrors, like myself. Morpheus can look deep into our souls and see our desires, fears and doubts.
The song also focuses on the ever shifting and liquid nature of dreams and the sense of vulnerability and loss of control when we sleep. We give ourselves over to Morpheus himself. I used a theremin on the second verse invoking the references of fear, mystery and uncertainty. There’s also some odd time signatures and effects we put on the vocals to make it seem like you’re inside a dream. We even referenced some of our other songs within the middle section for Through Fire and Flame, Beyond and Eye of the Storm.
We wanted to incorporate a lot of horror themes and things like psych hospitals, horror movies, all the good stuff!
