Dream Chaser
chasing a dream in a tunnel of steam and smoke
running really fast gasping for air as i choke
clinching my fist swinging at shadows as they pop in and out of the mist
catching my dream at the end of the tunnel is something i dearly wish
but all i can see is the hour of sorrow that holds stedfast at the end of the line
and even good morrow is bitter and sour like the taste of a twisted lime
but my dreams keep running and the faster my stride the faster she tends to run
like a bullet inside a six chambered barrel shot from a loaded gun
but this is the pursuit of a happy endeavor
no matter what the outcome maybe
and although life throws you whatever
just keep on chasing your dreams
