Some Dreams from Bright Blue by David Ney

I walked you through the alley
I walked you through your yard
I picked up an aquarium
And set it down too hard
I ruptured its integrity
And the water seeped through
Onto my face – I’ve awakened to realize
Some dreams don’t come true

I was taking my usual route
And I ran into a detour sign
You said: “I know a shortcut
And everything is fine!”
And while we were walking
I tripped in the street
You helped me to my feet so soon
As you stroke the trauma out of my head
I know some dreams don’t come true

I had a prior engagement
Made the party way too late
Everyone was drunk
And I’m in a sober state
I tried to fall into a slumber
So that I could meet up with you
But it never happened - so I hung from a tree
Cuz some dreams don’t come true

I run into the boisterous
And the walking undead
And all the while you’re snugglin’
With the covers of your bed
I’m going through a conflict
A fight in the great bright blue
It’s cold and lonely in the arctic
And some dreams don’t come true

You bent the bars of my cage
Just enough so I could fit
You ask the reason why I’m smiling
And I’m proud to say you’re it
And I can see a lot of colors
Purple, turquoise, and blue
But it’s all subjective as long as
Some dreams don’t come true
