about
While lost in the nightmarish dreamscape of broken promises, littered with perverted images of love, Chris Nine found himself surrounded by the the haunting melody that would inspire the electric and powerful vocal line of dreameater; Shadowed by the backdrop of disillusioned hopes, Chris relentlessly fights to find himself again amidst the rubble of truth and lies, searching anxiously and religiously to reclaim self worth and his inner fire. The blending of heavy rock and emo-esque vocals that seem to rise with inner self belief and resiliency. Leaning on influences from bands such as cleopatrick, Rise Against, Breaking Benjamin the rock ballad “dreameater” was forged.
lyrics
Whisper whisper don’t kiss her, felt her words through my head
Look at what she found I started breaking down
At the words that she said
Cause she blew my mind and my design came down crumbling
Asking where she’s at this morning so I said
So your the shit yet you walk in my head
Playing games with my mind, as I lie in bed
My mouth is stitched yet your lost in my head
I’m sick of your lies, I’d rather be dead
Miss her miss her, why this hurts, memories just can’t forget
She tried to come around, happy and so proud
Off and on to the next
Cause she blew my mind and my design, came down crumbling
Asking where she’s at this morning so I said
So your the shit yet you walk in my head
Playing games with my mind, as I lie in bed
My mouth is stitched yet your lost in my head
I’m sick of your lies, I’d rather be dead
So your the shit yet you walk in my head
Playing games with my mind, as I lie in bed
My mouth is stitched yet your lost in my head
I’m sick of your lies, I’d rather be dead
But in my dreams I hold you close
But in my dreams I hold you close
Yeah
Close
Close
She blew my mind and my design came down crumbling
Asking where she’s at this morning so I said
So your the shit yet you walk in my head
Playing games with my mind, as I lie in bed
My mouth is stitched yet your lost in my head
I’m sick of your lies, I’d rather be dead
So your the shit yet you walk in my head
Playing games with my mind, as I lie in bed
My mouth is stitched yet your lost in my head
I’m sick of your lies, I’d rather be dead
