Just a Dream

"The roles I play, the truths I speak. All built from words, all paper-thin. But I defend them like they’re skin."
You know that moment when you wake from a dream… and realize it felt real?
This song asks: what if that’s our waking life too?
“Just a Dream” explores the idea that much of what we experience — our thoughts, roles, even identity — might just be a conceptual story. Inspired by Peter Ralston’s insights into consciousness, the lyrics drift through that unsettling space between belief and awakening.
