Racing Dreams
In a world built on dreamsI find only Nightmares
Ghosts from the past
Lives lived now ended
Dead and buried
In the shed of my head
Love lost and brocken where whispers are spoken
In a language i dont undersatand
until i wake the next day
and open my eyes
Realise it was only a dream
But still was real
So i go back to sleep
to dream my day away
Safe from the reality of my own cloudy day
Every Silver Lining has a cloud
Every up
Has a down
Every Clown wears a frown
But some dreams come true
Sometimes nightmares too
But ive dreamt of catching Rainbows
and being outta space
Visited other worlds
Being part of another human Race
This Race isnt mine
But ill make it to the finishing line
When its my time
