Chemical Dreams
Imperium Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Entering my room of fun
In you go
Deforming all that it contains
Umbibing you in pleasure pains
It's placed in your head my son
Don't you know
I will leave a lasting trace
Torn from my smothering embrace

Chemical dreams
Chemical dreams

As you're looking through my eyes
You will see
Things that you have never seen
Together we'll explore it all
Come with me
To places you have never been

I will make you float on air
Spinning round
Reality caught in a spin
Gravity will surely win
Take the jump now if you dare
There's no ground
This flying vision ends so rough
Grasping hands as wings fall off

Chemical dreams
Chemical dreams

Set the trap
Seal your fate




Will take long
but I can wait

Overall Meaning

The song "Chemical Dreams" by Imperium is a surreal and psychedelic journey through the mind-altering effects of drugs. The lyrics suggest that the singer is inviting someone to join them in a drug-induced state in their "room of fun." There, they will experience pleasure and pain, seeing things they have never seen before and exploring new places. The singer promises to make their companion "float on air" and experience the sensation of being caught in a spin. However, they also warn that the experience will end poorly, with the illusion of flight ending abruptly and painfully.


The lyrics are deliberately ambiguous and can be interpreted in a number of ways. On one level, they seem to be a straightforward depiction of a drug trip. On another level, they can be read as a metaphor for the allure of addiction and the destructive cycle it creates. It is also possible to read the lyrics as a commentary on the power dynamics between addiction and the addict, with the singer coaxing their companion into a dangerous situation they are powerless to resist.
