lyrics

woke up one morning
singing phrases from a dream
into his mobile phone
his note book out of reach
in the morning

it doesn’t matter
one fleeting impression
among many others
dream diary in the cloud
in the morning

a cloud of dreams
geo-tagged, metadata,
dreams no longer forgotten
from this morning

this song, singular thing
thing, ephemeral thing
a memory from a bar
a run around the park
in the morning

dreams all encoded,
uploaded, to a cloud
[there’s no one listening in]
from pillow to server
in the morning

a cloud of dreams
related to a data subject
pseudonymised fragmented
from this morning
