Nightmare Dressed in Dream

"A dark cinematic horror pop song performed with a melodic haunting female singing voice. The song starts slow and tense with a trembling piano and heartbeat drums, then builds into a breathtaking chorus with powerful vocals and orchestral strings. The rhythm should be suspenseful, dramatic, and emotional — inspired by the atmospheric and moody qualities of contemporary alternative pop and indie folk artists, combined with the eerie ambiance of classic horror movie soundtracks. Include eerie background vocals and distant creepy laughter layered in the mix. This is a sung performance, not spoken word — emphasize melody, rhythm, and vocal phrasing. Use the following lyrics: (Verse 1) The room is breathing under light, I feel the pulse, it's holding tight. Every step, a note of pain, Every breath, a dark refrain. (Pre-Chorus) Heartbeat racing through my skin, The fear, it starts to sing within... (Chorus) Don’t look down, the floor is thin, Every sound comes creeping in. The shadows hum my melody, They pull me close — they sing with me. Don’t look down, the air is cold, My voice is trembling, taking hold. I’m alive inside the scream, A nightmare dressed in dream. (Verse 2) Echoes crawling up the stairs, Music tangled in my hair. Piano bleeding into cries, I see the truth behind my eyes. (Bridge) The tempo breaks, my voice collides, The silence burns from deep inside. A laugh, a tear, they intertwine, I’m the rhythm — out of time. (Final Chorus) Don’t look down, the floor is thin, Every sound comes creeping in. The night begins to breathe again, I’m not afraid — I’m born within. Don’t look down, the lights collide, I’m still singing through the fright. I’m alive inside the scream, A nightmare dressed in dream."
