Maladaptive Daydreams

about

Written in an insomnia-driven stupor, Maladaptive Daydreams sonically illustrates the dissociative experience of excessive fantasization: eerie, muddled, low-fidelity. Produced, written, and performed by artist Hailey Simone, she herself has struggled with such a phenomenon and channels similar themes creatively throughout her music.

lyrics

[Chorus]
Where did the time go?
Stuck in a dream
Stuck in the motions
Gone with the wind
Gone off a potion
All I do is win and everybody knows it

Where did the time go?
Stuck in a dream
Stuck in the motions
Gone with the wind
Gone off a potion
All I do is win and I can't control it, yeah

[Verse]
I don't know what's fake or real
But I know that my life is not ideal
So my mind then takes over the wheel
Takes over the wheel, takes over the wheel

In my dreams I'm undefeated
Like the queen I'm treated
Life is free and easy
Even I would wanna be me

Looks can be deceiving
I’m an artist when I'm scheming
I banish all the demons
It’s all better when I'm dreaming

I be stuck up on a feeling, uh
Peace within my being, uh
But only when I key in to a world that no one's seeing, uh

Feel like I'm the one, that I'm Neo
But I’m no hero, I'm a weirdo you can see through
So tell me

[Chorus]
Where did the time go?
Stuck in a dream
Stuck in the motions
Gone with the wind
Gone off a potion
All I do is win and everybody knows it

Where did the time go?
Stuck in a dream
Stuck in the motions
Gone with the wind
Gone off a potion
All I do is win and I can't control it, yeah

[Verse]
I don't know what's fake or real
But I know that my life is not ideal
So my mind then takes over the wheel
Takes over the wheel, takes over the wheel

[Interlude]
I can't wake up!
A trap of my own making, keeping myself waiting
For what?
It’s all out for my taking, no time to be wasting
Good luck
Good luck
