Euphoria

A bit more dramatic than usual but i had fun with it. The melody has been lying around in my head for over a year now and the song was innitially supposed to be about something different (maybe even more dramatic) but i couldn't wrap my head around writing the text. Unrelated to that, i wanted to make a song with a similar mood to "another round" (2020) but those attempts didn't realy go anywhere until i tried building a beat inspired by scarlet pleasure's "what a life" with my previously mentioned melody, which turned into this song. Writing the text wasn't that big of an issue, it actually went pretty well. The picture was also a bit more unusual but turned out as i wanted it to. But the singing could definetely better as i'm still not a great singer and i'm not very happy about that name since there seem to be thousands of songs/movies/shows with that name but i sadly couldn't think of a better one.

Some fun facts:
- the song has 111 bpm
- the 5th (and last) song this year which contains my voice
- my shortest song in 2022 yet
- that's me in the picture

Lyrics:

we want to the state of
euphoria with
another round another dance
no need to slow down as
we don't want to wake up
we don't want to wake up
we don't want to wake up
we don't want to wake up

heads are thinking straight
throats are getting dry
no more time to wait
can't miss another high
numbing down the fear
last chance to disappear
let's have a bit of fun
before the light is gone

heads are thinking straight
thoughts are passing by
are we the one to blame
can't miss another high
numbing down the fear
last chance to disappear
let's have a bit of fun
before the light is gone

we want to the state of
euphoria with
another round another dance
no need to slow down as
we don't want to wake up
we don't want to wake up
we don't want to wake up
we don't want to wake up

we can't tell if it's
the last time today
we don't want to lose the fire
the world is turning grey
we're not ready for tomorrow
not ready for the grasp
not ready for the sorrow
just relishing the gasp

we can't tell if it's
the last time today
we don't want to lose the fire
the world is turning grey
we're too scared of being sober
not ready to decide
to either keep on dancing
or to end the night

numbing down the fear
last chance to disappear
let's have a bit of fun
before the light is gone

we want to the state of
euphoria with
another round another dance
no need to slow down as
we don't want to wake up
we don't want to wake up
we don't want to wake up
we don't want to wake up
