[Intro – distant, echoey]
Yeah… not every dream comes true.
[Verse – soft but cutting]
I had a picture-perfect plan,
held it tight inside my hands—
but life don’t care ’bout all that hope,
it flips the script, rewrites the notes.
I chased the sky ’til my lungs went numb,
but dreams run fast… and I came undone.
Everybody asks if I made it through—
but some dreams die before they bloom.
[Chorus – the reply line]
So you ask if my dreams ever came true—
nah… some of them broke me in two.
They slipped right out like they never knew
how much I prayed they’d pull me through.
Yeah, I’ve had stars that never shined,
plans collapse right before my eyes…
Some dreams grow wings,
but mine didn’t fly this time.
[Outro – soft, resigned]
But hey… even broken dreams teach you something.
And maybe that’s enough tonight.
