Done Dreamin
What I thought was destiny turned out to be a distant dream
Stuck in the land of make believe, all I see is what I couldn’t be
I tried then tried again
I guess sometimes you just can’t win
It cut deep then it cut deeper
I was once a firm believer
That my dreams could all come to fruition
I still grab the old goal by its neck
Then scream with all my chest
And i fear that I’ll be gone before it listens
I always tried my best to fit a mold not for me
And in this empty space it feels so lonely
I guess it’s just a chapter of my story
So now I’ll hit the hay, dreams are made for sleeping anyway
