Every tear that I shed
Every word that I say
Is like an echo of myself
As I grow out of my old ways
Looking for new possibilities
Looking for new roads
I wonder what awaits me
When I will hop aboard
On the plane that goes to the land
The land of all my dreams
The place where I saw myself
When I was merely sixteen
A sunny orchard with mellow farms
A vast acre with green
It was where I wanted to spend the rest of my life
That was where I wanted to be
B

ut dreams don't come true, that way
And that's what I wanna tell
As all my dreams shattered
And all my hopes failed
I lost my ticket to la la Land
And ended up in hell
And it's the hard way that I realised
That , nothing in life goes well
I shed a few drops of tear
As I  bid goodbye
Being hit by the harsh truth of life
Was something I had to buy
And they had told me to be patient
They had said I would be fine
But the tempest left me hollow
Almost, broken every night
As I squalor with myself
For every mistake I ever made
I think it's just me
Or is it all in my head
Afraid to close my eyes
Afraid to trust again
Afraid to do anything,
Apart from my usual ways
I have forgotten how it felt
To be unconventional and free
To do whatever the heart wants
To be very me

I have forgotten all my old ways
I am done with tears
I have to deal with what I have
Until the end of my years
And that's a sad truth
But more real than my hopes
Better to have a controlled existence
Than dreams uncontrolled
Dreams Uncontrolled
