This is a "what if" AHOF sings this song as a cover, which won't likely happen because I am just being delusional. However, it's one of the songs that I think could fit the group, especially any similar songs they would cover or release.


This song we'll be doing is THE DAY I DIE by Daughtry.


Why I think this cover suits AHOF?

  • A somewhat unique concept that can potentially suit the group. However, rock concepts (specifically heavy metal ones) might not suit for Daisuke, Woongki, or Jeongwoo, but I think considering how potentially versatile they are, it is possible.

  • A unique direction for AHOF that might appeal to not just fans, but for casual listeners, or perhaps those who love rock.

  • Although the lyrics are dark, they aren't innappropiate for the group.

  • A vocally-focused song. Songs like these can showcase AHOF's vocals.


  • Main concern is that this is a vocally powerful song, which may not fit all member's vocal level. I may end up giving the stronger parts to Han, JL, and Woongki.

[Verse 1]

Haven't seen the light of day since God knows when

Couldn't force a smile even if I tried

My heart is empty and my bones won't mend

Feels like the river's running dry


[Chorus]

And I—

I keep on dreaming of the day I die

Where I escape the darkness in my own mind

It's like a mental funeral, something beautiful

I wanna stay, but I know I gotta let it go

I keep on dreaming of the day I die

And I don't wanna wake up


[Verse 2]

Melancholy creeps in like a thief in the night

Resentment tries to have its day

I know I'm just another dog in their fight

Feeding on the scraps of my mistakes, yeah


[Chorus]

And I—

I keep on dreaming of the day I die

Where I escape the darkness in my own mind

It's like a mental funeral, something beautiful

I wanna stay, but I know I gotta let it go

I keep on dreaming of the day I die

And I don't wanna wake up (Wake up)


[Post-Chorus]

And I don't wanna wake up, yeah

And I don't wanna wake up


[Bridge]

Ooh-ooh, yeah

I keep on dreaming (Dreaming, dreaming, ooh)

I keep on dreaming (Keep on dreaming, ooh)

I keep on dreaming

[Da/Ha] I keep on dreaming, yeah


[Guitar Solo]


[Chorus]

Yeah, and I—

I keep on dreaming of the day I die (Keep on dreaming)

Where I escape the darkness of my own mind (Keeping on dreaming)

It's like a mental funeral, something beautiful

I wanna stay, but I know I gotta let it go

I keep on dreaming of the day I die

And I don't wanna wake up (Wake up)


[Outro]

Yeah, I don't wanna wake up (Wake up)

Don't wanna wake up
