Girly Magazine And A Packet Of Smokes

When I was around 8-10 years old, my grandfather gifted me a textbook titled “Heath Earth Science” by Rolland B. Bartholomew - I still own this book to this day. I remember opening the book and being fascinated by the first few pages showing Earth floating in space surrounded by different colors of infrared wavelengths that you typically see in astrophotography. And I remember reading the text next to the image on how our planet and life here is so ephemeral on a grand cosmic level. The existence of Earth and humanity is just a fleeting glimpse. That realization was both scary and beautiful, and still is! This textbook was way too advanced for me at the time but I always carried it everywhere with me because I wanted to learn all of its contents. This was the beginning of my interest and fascination with astronomy and space science. This song is me paying homage to this pivotal book - thank you grandpa :)

“Dreams That Woke Me” is a reflective, psychedelic folk-rock journey that moves between childhood dream fragments and adult understanding. The song traces a young mind navigating fear, paralysis, and vivid imagery—then gently reframes those experiences through the clarity of time. What once felt jumbled and overwhelming becomes meaningful: dreams as teachers, fear as signal, imagination as refuge.
With spacious textures, hypnotic rhythms, and warm, human instrumentation, the track feels like drifting through memory while awake, where the past doesn’t disappear, it integrates. At its heart, this is a song about survival, creativity, and recognizing that the person you are now was already forming back then, one dream at a time.
