Broken Dreams

A sound disturbed my ear A tremor in the air Woke me from the stories in my head A knock came from my door Like a pounding in my chest Made me leave the comfort of my bed I look behind the blinds Could not believe my eyes An army of unfriendly faces Oh I tried to close my eyes to fall asleep Oh They’ve torn the seam that held my broken dreams Then tearing down my walls They grabbed me limb from limb Threw me in the cold air of the night They held their torches lit Like the fire in the eyes Burning everything I had in sight The rain beneath my feet My tears staining beneath The ashes of my broken dreams Oh I tried to close my eyes to fall asleep Oh They’ve torn the seam that held my broken dreams Oh I tried to close my eyes to fall asleep Oh They’ve torn the seam that held my broken dreams My broken dreams That held my broken dreams My broken dreams My broken dreams
