about

A reimagining of Crowded House's hit single "Don't Dream (Hey Now)"

lyrics

There is freedom within
There is freedom without
Can't catch the deluge in a paper cup

There is a battle ahead
Many battles are lost
But you'll never see the end of the road
If you travel with me

Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us.
You know they won't win

Now they're towing my car
There's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion
But there's no proof
In my news feed today
Tales of war and of waste
But you click on through
To your favorite meme account page

Now I'm walking again
To the beat of a drum
And I'm counting the steps
To the door of your heart
Only shadows ahead
Barely clearing the roof
Get to know the feelings
Liberation and release

about

Nick Rapley Brooklyn, New York

Musician and artist. All aspects of my work are manipulated by no hands other than my own: conception, creation, production. I thrive on the unknown. I don't plan, plot, or scheme any of my works. I merely begin. The only limitations set before me are those of my abilities. This process affords me the luxury to reflect upon my subconscious and learn about myself. Music and art breed growth in life ... more
