Soma
Return of the Jaded Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nothing left to say
And all I've left to do
Is run away from you
And she led on, down
With secrets I can't keep

Close your eyes and sleep
Don't wait up for me
Hush now, don't you speak
To me

Close your eyes and sleep
Don't wait up for me




Hush now, don't you speak
To me

I'm a progressive producer who was considering using the production alias Soma, so I look it up just to make sure, and I find this gorgeous vocal progressive track. Reminds me a little of Sinister Silence, but definitely it's own thing. Beautiful sound set, and a damn near perfect kick. Congrats guys, even if a little belated. I will definitely be putting this in a set.
