i could feel it when i drove up
when i got home
something changed
something felt different
i felt different
it was gonna be today
i didn't ask for it
i knew it was there
she handed it to me anyway
i looked at it and there it was
not the way i wanted it to look
not the way it was supposed to look
small, thin & disappointing
i already knew
it got passed along, person to person
until there was only silence left
the silence that comes from pity
from not knowing quite what to say
what do you say to someone who's had their dream end before it even started?
dream another dream. this dream is over.
i was going to leave
i was going to get out
i was going to leave
i guess this is what disappointment feels like
what sadness feels like
what broken feels like
what starting over feels like
dream another dream. this dream is over.
