Pipe Dreams 2
I’m going back to roots
To the country roads down to the pond
My single source of truth
Where the cricket sounds drown out bonds
We hold to our phones
The service won’t cut through, bask in the silence own
The moment almost lost in my youth
City dwellin’ had me
Like Magellan
Focused hard on conquest
No regard for consequence
Urban fever stifles
Brightside dreamers
Lost my optimism
Fueled by egoism
It was all a Pipe Dream
Self-absorbed get-rich-scheme
Psyche warped and lost a friend
Yet paid its worth with a lesson
I’m building deeper roots
To ensure that I don’t make the same mistake
With you
We’ve built a life, may buy a house on a lake
Or a poolWhere the birds sing loud, we call it
A nest for two
Our single source of truth
It was all a Pipe Dream
Self-absorbed get-rich-scheme
Psyche warped and lost a friend
Yet paid its worth with a lesson
It was all a Pipe Dream
In an effort to feel seen
An irreplaceable lesson
If I had to do it again
I’d do it all over again
