In the Wake of Dreams Front Cover

Lyric

Willy

Nostalight9

One-Eyed Willy, I hear your song

Across the tide, it pulls me strong

The sea still glows where dreams began

You showed the way, old pirate man

Your shadow sails beyond the blue

But every wave still talks of you

Guide me through the rising sun

The journey’s never truly done

Sally’s voice is in the breeze

Her laughter drifts across the seas

The map is worn but hearts remain

The gold we sought was not in vain

Willy, keep the stars in line

I’ll chase your ghost beyond the shine

The anchor’s gone, the ropes untied

The shore grows small, the world is wide

Your stories burn beneath my skin

A spark of youth still burning within

The wind repeats the words you said

“The dream’s alive, it’s never dead.”

Now I can see the dawn unfold

The ocean paints our tales in gold

Sally’s song begins to call

Through every wave, I hear it all

Your compass points where hearts are free

Beyond the edge, you wait for me

Guide me through the rising sun

The journey’s never truly done

Sally’s voice is in the breeze

Her laughter drifts across the seas

The map is worn but hearts remain

The gold we sought was not in vain

Willy, keep the stars in line

I’ll chase your ghost beyond the shine

If the sea forgets my name

Tell her I became the flame

Guide me through the morning blue

The dream lives on because of you

Sally’s voice is in the breeze

Her song forever comforts me

The ship you left will sail again

Through every child, through every friend

Willy, keep the stars in line

I’ll chase your ghost beyond the shine

Sally’s light beyond the bay

Leads me where the echoes play

Willy’s shadow, fading slow

Still the tide will let me go

The stars ignite, the night turns clear

Your voice is what I need to hear

The sails are gold, the waves still shine

Your dream and mine — forever align

One-Eyed Willy, now I see

Freedom’s what you gave to me

The sky turns gold, the waves align

Your dream and mine — forever shine

The sea still calls, the wind still sings

Through every loss, your spirit clings

The dawn will rise, the light will show

That every end still lets us grow

The sea is calm, the world is wide

I hold your truth, I hold your pride

Through every storm, through every hue

Sally smiles — and so do you

The sails drift on, the light breaks through

Your shadow fades into the blue

The wind repeats what dreams can do

Willy, I still believe in you

    After the light

    Nostalight9

In the Wake of Dreams expands Nostalight9's signature "Noscore" sound - a blend of melodic punk, ska rhythm, and alternative emotion - by adding new layers of mixture energy. Centered on lead tracks "Sally", "Silent Glow", and "Willy", the album fuses brass, guitars, and human pulse into a vivid contrast of light and shadow. Rap textures, noise layers, and dynamic shifts expand Nostalight9's sound into its most cinematic form yet - raw, emotional, and alive.
