It seems I can never speak in any of my dreams. Or perhaps I can in most dreams, but every so often I have a dream where I'm trying to tell someone something and I'm just unable. I try to speak, it takes great effort, and comes out breathless and barely audible. I usually then wake up shortly after, and wonder if, in my valiant attempt to speak in the dream, I've been mumbling incoherently in my sleep. I actually think that that's what it is, that I'm half way to consciousness, so my brain is trying to make me actually speak while my body is still in that REM-induced paralysis.
