What you hear is 95% Nord Wave 2. The vocoder parts are on my Korg R3, and there's vocals also.

I came up with this, after having an immersive dream - the kind where you feel like your dream life is so surreally different, than when awake - as if possibly containing echoes from a past life. So I made a song from it.

Lyrics:

V1

Too often rich history falls apart, with poor memory
When a past existence is viewed in the present as imaginary

Ramblings from an unstable mind
Grasping at straws, hoping to find
Semblance of fragments recalled
Although a new programs installed

Chorus

Let me take you back
Long before any soul attacks
I'm not just bags of chemicals inside a matrix
I'm much more than that
I'm from another world
I'm from another time
So what to do, back in the mix?
The moving clock behind me ticks ...
Within (re)flickering flashes, how
Don't forget to live now -

V2

Circumstances fuzzy, still, but I remember what I will
a dreamscape of a humid coast, with foliage and fresh air, but mostly ...

Looking down, my appearance changed
Body is different, feeling strange
Betrayed by a stealthy hive -
My head is wounded, but I survived!

Bridge

Right now!!!

You think it's a typical take
Suddenly, no way out,
you're trapped like a steak
Sensations so real
The pain it got in your head
Now there's nowhere to run
Cause you're memory's dead

Got to build back up
everything that was lost
Kill the noises with silence
but the quiet has costs
If everything falls apart
Hope within will transform
Till then, I'm a watcher
I'm the eye in the storm ...
