    About the Album: On her debut album Shapeshifting, Brooklyn-based singer/songwriter Nisa Lumaj, who records as Nisa, embarks on a journey towards self-acceptance, self-actualization and a coherent sense of identity—the kind that strives for an empowered, prolonged stare in the mirror, rather than a habitually uneasy glance. As a daughter of Albanian immigrants, Nisa grew up listening to traditional folk music, but as a young person living in New York City and studying in London, she eventually became immersed in the world of English-speaking pop music and enamored by artists like Björk, Peter Gabriel and PJ Harvey.

lyrics

Song Title: Dreamspeak

Lyrics:
Can you hear the siren singing?
It's your name on her lips
Innocent amusement,
Watching,
Knowing from the outset
You were never different
Subtle disappointment
Dreaming and projecting
On your own
Wanting to be there
but better off alone
You won’t know
If you’re still awake
Or sleeping through the motions
Better off alone
Can you hear them crying?
Mourning,
Coping with your absence
What’s the use in fighting?
Trying,
Only second guessing yourself
Knowing from the outset
You were never different
Sudden disappointment
Dreaming and projecting
On your own
Wanting to be there
but better off alone
You won’t know
If you’re still awake
Or sleeping through the motions
Better off alone
Speak up
Let go
Say what you won’t
Speak up
Let go
Speak up
Let go
