About This Song


Night Dress began as a song that I initially improvised lyrically on. The term night dress grew into this idea of how people are generally a bit different (more themselves) with people they are more comfortable with. It also delves a bit into sexual orientation and how it just shouldn't matter what consenting adults within their own private time. If I was to interpret this song literally for you, it is about a man who wants to be with a woman who dumped him after finding out that he sometimes dressed up in women's clothing (night dress).

Feedback Requested


This is a weird song for me, I realize that. Feedback on instrumentation, lyrics, melody, singing style, etc. would be greatly appreciated!

In a part of him there seems to be another digress
Another part that exists inside a night dress
Some could claim that he was confused and disregarded
The man was tamed by a forbidden theme unguarded

This could be true when I’m with you
You have been all and I seek truth

I don’t want to be force of a fake fool
Because a part of me is of the body of the misused
And la la la she sings for everything will pass
In another world I sing, its raining poison gas

I don’t want to have to see your face in the night sky
Constellation photographs remind me of your bright eyes
A pot of gold sits at your feet and is more alike
Another scene of love taking hold of the most high

You have faded all my chances of my chances of love
Yet, you have conjured me with a face of a dove
You can’t solve everything with one look from the glass
A concept remembered by one’s soul who’s been blessed

There’s a part of you that breathes just like a sunset
Bright beady eyes, with a face full of whole regret
I want to see you in the sweet and silent sunset
I want to go and find you sleeping on the sunbed
I want to see the part that exists behind the night dress
