Waking Nightmares
rap, Dreamy K‑rap blend: airy pads and detuned bells over a slow, swinging trap groove; female vocals shifting between breathy melody and sharp Korean rap cadences. Monk‑style low chants layered as rhythmic drones in the hook, drenched in reverb. Verses stay intimate and close-mic’d; chorus blooms wide with stacked harmonies and distant choir swells, subtle sub-bass pulses underneath., melancholy, female vocals, k-pop

Lyrics
Breath on the glass
Ceiling too close
Clock on the wall
Melting so slow
[Verse 1]
I run but the room just stretches
Every door folds back to one
Faces blur into blank reflections
Every whisper weighs a ton
Hands on my throat, made of smoke
Still I choke on the silence
I know it’s a dream, but the dream
Feels sharper than violence
[Pre-Chorus]
Is it you, is it me
Pulling shadows by the strings
I’m awake, I can see
But the dark still clings
[Chorus]
Waking nightmares
Cut deeper than my sleep can do
Eyes wide open
But I’m drowning in a faded hue
If this is just my mind
Why does it feel like truth?
Waking nightmares
Hold me tighter than you
[Verse 2]
Hallway of mouths all laughing
But the sound’s stuck on rewind
Every step writes one more caption
In the margins of my mind
I pray but the words fall sideways
Like the rain on tinted glass
Even when the sun breaks sideways
All I see is one more mask
[Rap Verse]
깨어 있어도 어둠은 내 방에 이사 와 (yeah)
불 켰는데 그림자는 더 또렷해져, oh why
내일을 믿고 싶어도 발목은 어제에 묶여
웃는 가면들 속에서 진짜 난 어디에 숨겨
심장 박동, 북처럼 쿵, 다시 뛰어봐도
벽에 새긴 낙서처럼 지워지지 않아도
기억의 틈 사이로 괴물들이 춤춰도
나는 나를 불러, 낮게 속삭여
[Chant]
[low, steady monk‑like chant under vocal]
나를 불러
나를 불러
깨어나, 깨어나
빛을 봐
[Chorus]
Waking nightmares
Cut deeper than my sleep can do
Eyes wide open
But I’m drowning in a faded hue
If this is just my mind
Why does it feel like truth?
Waking nightmares
Hold me tighter than you
[Bridge]
If I count to ten, will the walls back down?
If I say your name, will I hear that sound?
Or am I just a ghost in my own house?
Just a ghost in my own house
[Chorus]
Waking nightmares
Cut deeper than my sleep can do
Eyes wide open
But I’m drowning in a faded hue
If this is just my mind
Why does it feel like truth?
Waking nightmares
Hold me tighter than you (than you)
[Outro]
[chant softens, distant]
나를 불러
깨어나
From the waking nightmare
I open to the dawn
