Please Don't Wake Up Dead

This is my submission to the 4th Crunchtime OST Composing Jam!

 It has a runtime of 13 minutes and 30 seconds, and it was made in FL Studio.

 I certainly locked in with this one since I managed to make 7 tracks this time! That is quite impressive considering that I made 4 tracks in my first jam, and that one lasted pretty much 3 times longer!

 

 I chose both the word and picture themes as my theme :)

Just like in my first jam, my mind went a bit grim when making up the story. Only this time the theme kinda supports that idea XD

 For the story, I thought up that the main character has a very bizarre syndrome, causing their dreams to be deadly. They have to fight the monsters to live through the night.

 Their name is Aisling Svoboda, and they relive the same nightmare every day. There is one monster, the one you see in the picture, that has never been beaten; Aisling always loses. This everydayness causes her to be deathly scared of going to sleep, and I tried to convey that feeling in the lyrics I wrote!

 Here they are:

Through all the things I did and

through all the things I didn't.

To wake up from my dreams alive,

that is my last lost lust, my desire.

My mortal coil is incaverned deep;

my mortal coil is trying to sleep.

I'm so tired; I don't want to!

I'm so tired I don't wannoo!

Free me from my dreams, I beg.

I could even lose a leg

and be better off than having to

relive this nightmare again.

My last lost yearning and desire

is to rise from my dreams alive.

Please release me from my dreams!

Every day my future ish bedims.
