A Deep Narcosis Waits For Me — A Song of Recovery, Reflection, and Endurance

A Deep Narcosis Waits For Me is a reflective electronic song tracing the experience of surgery, anesthesia, and the gradual return of motion and sensation. Minimal ambient textures and restrained instrumentation mirror the delicate balance between physical limitation and mental perseverance.

The track explores moments of disorientation, quiet endurance, and personal reflection, capturing the emotional weight of recovery while allowing listeners to engage with the narrative at their own pace. Through space, pacing, and sparse melodic elements, the song emphasizes introspection over spectacle.

The Story Behind A Deep Narcosis Waits For Me
