I Dreamt of You When You Weren'T Looking, Ode To a Lost Friend
i dreamt of you when you weren't looking
i imagined a world better then sulking
when we would live in the shadows of the world
i dreamt that you arose above it all.
i dreamt that we were happy with lots of money
only dollar signs give me a sense of dopamine
you probably wanted that but you didn't
you wanted a life without my prison.
and all the friends i had, i dreamed we lived in castles
and all the problems we couldn't fix i dreamed we found the answer
i wanted you to be happy but maybe that wasn't true
i wanted you to be happy when i was around you.
years later we are so distanced
and i saw from my phone that you had arisen
you have now a life i dreamt you could have
and i see now your good is separated from my bad.
i dreamt of you when you weren't with me
and i see now it was just premonition
and maybe if i am a genie
i shouldv'e fulfilled my own wishes.
