   the song "dial my heart" on my phone. I closed my eyes, opened them but I had   
   [gone] blind and I was slowly falling out of the chair, back [toward] the   
   ground. [I tried] to yell    
   for help but my voice was muted, low and distorted and I woke up in bed at   
   night in my dark bedroom, same muted cry for help   
      
   First thing, I'm pondering the term as if it reads:  "plate shut over lock"   
   but the possibilities are numerous, to say the least.   
      
   Second, I'm unfamiliar with the song "Dial My Heart" but if you happen to have   
   a youtube link (you can copy / paste it here, but it may or may not be   
   "active"— either way, the reader has the opportunity to copy/paste it into a   
   browser window in order    
   to sample the song, if it's a real song rather than a "dream title") I'd be   
   interested in hearing it.   
      
   Third, this sounds VERY much like what some refer to as "night terrors"   
   although I'm unable to recall ever having one of a terrifying nature, although   
   I did once have a "return to body" that was tremendously interesting at that   
   time.  I suppose I was too    
   fascinated by the event to be in any kind of terror, although I did relax and   
   observe and wait to see if my breathing / heartbeat would return, and when,   
   which they did, after which I figured that whatever had happened was not   
   likely to immediately re-   
   occur, so life continued on from that point.   
      
   The general description of it is that the dreaming "soul/spirit/mind/entity"   
   was returning to the physical body, but that the physical body was "awake"   
   just enough *prior to* "full reintegration" that the "terror" ensued.  It is   
   perfectly normal for a    
   sleeping, physical body to reach such a calm level that the mind / dream-self   
   is "free" to be in its natural, "timeless" environment.  There's a LOT to   
   discuss / teach / learn here, but for a pointer, consider doing some online   
   research on "return to    
   body" as well as "astral body projection" (also called an "OOBE") or "out of   
   body experiences".   
      
   Welcome to the world of dreams!   |-) zzzzz
