Trapped in my thoughts Dreaming of hopes, Thinking they'll be caught Before I reach the death's slope; Staring at the bright blue sky And observing the birds, Wishing I too could fly But the idea was absurd; Noticing a girl walk by Dreaming that we'll be together And that I'd be one lucky guy, But I know I can't get her; Hearing the rush of a stream And the water hitting the stones, Wishing that it wasn't a dream But it was a hope too well known; I dream of hopes to often Causing me much pain, And my mental sanity begins to soften, From dreaming of things I can't obtain; I need to stop dreaming And live the life I was given Instead of wasting time sleeping About things that are forbidden; So I'll start trying to focus On things that are a bore, Being rid of this diagnosis And alas, I'll dream no more;

Hopes
Trapped in my thoughts Dreaming of hopes, Thinking they'll be caught Before I reach the death's slope; Staring at the bright blue sky And observing the birds, Wishing I too could fly But the idea was absurd; Noticing a girl walk by Dreaming that we'll be together And that I'd be one lucky guy, But I know I can't get her; Hearing the rush of a stream And the water hitting the stones, Wishing that it wasn't a dream But it was a hope too well known; I dream of hopes to often Causing me much pain, And my mental sanity begins to soften, From dreaming of things I can't obtain; I need to stop dreaming And live the life I was given Instead of wasting time sleeping About things that are forbidden; So I'll start trying to focus On things that are a bore, Being rid of this diagnosis And alas, I'll dream no more;
