Based on the Junji Ito short story of the same name, this song is about a person who suffers from dreams that they perceive as lasting for years. Each night, the dreams get longer, until the dreamer eventually evolves into an unrecognizable being who can’t remember anything about their previous life...
Violent, violent eye movement
Only for, for a moment
Tremors and shakes and then
Stillness and sleep
All alone for a century
I'm awake, I look for you
Running at full speed into your room
You let out a shriek when you look at me
Glancing at my hands, am I different?
Not a memory of the day before
Everybody is speaking different
Long dream, oh, the longest dream
I'm afraid of what waits for me
What'll happen if it never ends?
What will I wake as then?
I'm awake, are you awake too?
Thousands of yеars gone, I thought you knew
Vapours in the dark, no morе fear of death
Breathing in the dust, are you different?
Not a memory, of the day before
Everybody is speaking different
Ooh, had a long dream
Oh, oh, ooh, oh, oh, ah, ah
How much time has passed since I saw you last?
Eyelids fluttering, is it different?
Not a memory of what came before
Everybody is speaking different
