John Bounds - Dreams

Sick and tired of chasing dreams
feeling inspired leaves me in pain
and every time I put out the fire
it comes back haunting me again

Just wish I would let it die
leave it all where it will lie
Where disappointments cannot bring
It's false smiles that are so obscene

Can't imagine me growing old
to ever let this life be so cold
All I want is a place in this world
a big piece of me left to unfurl

Sometimes when I'm all alone
Think of regrets that could be my own
Should never give in, never give up
Dreams are still mine from seeds
that have been sown
