how can a dream come true if you can't dream it

oh how i miss the dream that never comes
some parallel universe that never orbits this way
where friends never die
where a dime is worth more than this measely pay
where vulnerability is harnessed and treasured
apathy is old and tired
doubt is fired and love cannot be measured by diamond rings
and confused with golden strings, fancy bling
but yet found in simple things like listening
paying attention very closely
to dreams you've never even dreamt
cause you're heart has already been spent over and over again
locked up in the den, swearing to never make the mistake to open it's gates again
and i'm trying to surrender to new faces
i'm trying to get closer to their touch
get used to it
but i can't
it's not for me
but neither were you
so no one
no one won, no one lost
but there is a dream
that never comes
but dreams are for dreamers
and i'll raise this child on my own
i'll hold up the fort with a welcome sign on the door
cause this is where i have to live
this is my life out of a dream
alone till the end, so it seems
