           -Again-

Hopes.
Dreams.
Fears.

If they meant so much to us,
Then why did sharing mine
With you amount to nothing
But heartache and the knowledge
That you do not wish to be mine?
Heading for home with a bandaged
Wrist and wounded pride, I
Will do my best to drown you out
With another beer and more cigarettes.
Even sleep will not quell the tempest
In my head, for in dreams I see the
Torment and anguish brought daily
Upon my young heart.

Hopes.
Dreams.
Fears.

I will go to sleep tonight a man,
But wake tomorrow a boy again,
Afraid of a broken heart, but
Dreaming of hope and love.

"Ain't Got no quarrels with God, ain't got no time to grow old.  Lord knows I'm weak, won't somebody get me off of this reef"
