Dreaming While Awake



Dreaming While Awake


I had a dream,

Was it only a dream?

My thoughts can seem

To have no stream.

They tear each other apart.

When am I gonna start?

You look so happy when you do your art.


I’m at a desk

In suit and tie

But I never wanted to be that guy.

We do what we must to make it by.


I had a dream,

Was it only a dream?

My thoughts can seem

To have no stream.

They tear each other apart.

When am I gonna stop?

You look so happy when you do your art.


I have these opportunities,

And they are what are expected of me.

I have to please my family.

So when am I gonna start?

You look so happy when you do your art.


I’m just a man,

A speck on the earth.

God a day after my birth.

But I have some worth,

A purpose in my soul,

Living like somebody else,

Takes it toll.


I’m living the dream.

Whose dream is it anyways?

I’m living the dream.

Whose dream is it anyways?


I come home after a long day of work.

And it truly is an endearing quirk,

To find in my life,

That I have a wife,


Who has a dream,

And it’s not only a dream.

My thoughts can seem,

To find their home,

In me playing my part.

Maybe tomorrow I’ll start.

You look so happy when you do your art.
