I used Skye Jordan’s backing track as a foundation to craft lyrics around the theme of ‘grounded dreams.’ The vibe had a distinct Halloween feel, so I leaned into that, creating lyrics that evoke the imagery of a witch casting spells—a playful nod to the spooky season.

Lyrics
The sky was calling, but the chains remain
Bound by fear and caught in the rain
The weight of life, it pulls me low
Crushing every place, I’d like to go
I’ve learned that not all dreams can fly
Some are meant to live and some to die

Grounded dreams, they fade away
Caught between the night and day
The road ahead feels dark and bold
As dreams dissolve in whispers told
whispers told, whispers told, whispers told

I don’t know if it’s sad or lame
If you don’t get that then it’s you to blame
I’ve learned that not all dreams can fly
Some are meant to live and some to die

Grounded dreams, they fade away
Caught between the night and day
The road ahead feels dark and bold
As dreams dissolve in whispers told
whispers told, whispers told, whispers told

This is my first time attending an event like this, and I had a really good time. Skye Jordan’s backing was really inspiring :)!
