Twisted Dreams

[Verse 1] In the dusty streets, where the shadows play, A boy all alone, just workin’ every day, Dreams in his heart, but his world’s so small, Looks to the sky, sees an eagle soar and call. [Pre-Chorus] “Wish I could fly, leave this place behind, Chase the sun, where the ocean meets the sky.” But the earth holds him tight, chains of grime and dirt, Yet his soul whispers, “What could be, if I were free?” [Chorus] Fly away, into the sun, Catch the wind, where the world’s begun, Wings spread wide, into the unknown, But dreams can twist, when you’re all alone. [Verse 2] A girl appears, with eyes so bright, “Follow me, I’ll show you the night.” Through the alleys, where the shadows hide, Toy vendors call, but she pulls him to the side. [Bridge build up] A blue door waits, with a bird up high, “Do you want to fly?” they ask, no lie. Neon green potion, glowing in the dark, Without a thought, he takes a sip, makes his mark. [Intense Chorus] Fly away, into the sun, Catch the wind, where the world’s begun, Wings spread wide, into the unknown, But dreams can twist, when you’re all alone. [Soft Outro] Feathers sprout, but he’s not soaring high, A chicken’s wings, grounded, no sky. Wishes can trick, lead you astray, Don’t chase dreams that will fade away. [Moral] In the search for more, don’t lose your way, Some dreams are best left for another day. The horizon’s far, and the road’s unknown, But the heart’s true path is where dreams are grown.
