“Grieving the Dream”

I am grieving my dream.
Nothing was quite what it seemed.
And it’s over now. It’s over now.
Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye.
I am dismantling my desires.
Farewell to miscreants and liars.
And it’s over now. It’s over now.
Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye.
CH: There’s a little bitty girl deep inside of me,
Desperately needed to be seen.
So long betrayed. So long asleep.
Trapped in the temple with forgerers and thieves.
In the past I would polish up my pride.
Fabricate fierce fortresses and hide.
And that’s over now. I’ll get through somehow.
Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye.
CH2: There’s a little bitty girl deep inside of me.
Desperately wanted to believe.
Could only see what she wanted to see.
Obsessed with the pulse of a promise that could never be.
Brg: And now it’s time to let go of impossible plans.
Time to wake up. Stop building on quicksand.
Time to step back, take a good look around.
Listen and embrace the silent sounds of
Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye.
Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye.
Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye.
Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye.
Brg2: Ah, ah, Ah ah.
Ah, ah, Ah ah.
Ah, ah, Ah ah.
Ah, ah, Ah ah.
Now I see through the web of the dream.
Spun by charlatans and schemes.
And that’s over now. I reclaim my power.
Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye.
