I had a dream I got everything I wanted. It's not what you'd think, and--- if I'm being honest--- it might've been a nightmare to anyone who might care. Thought I could fly, so I jumped off the golden. Nobody cried. Nobody even noticed. I saw them standing right there and kinda thought they might care. I had a dream I got everything I wanted, but when I wake up I see you with me. You'd say, "ᴀꜱ ʟᴏɴɢ ᴀꜱ ɪ'ᴍ ʜᴇʀᴇ, ɴᴏ ᴏɴᴇ ᴄᴀɴ ʜᴜʀᴛ ʏᴏᴜ. ɪ ᴅᴏɴ'ᴛ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʟɪᴇ ʜᴇʀᴇ, ʙᴜᴛ ʏᴏᴜ ᴄᴏᴜʟᴅ ʟᴇᴀʀɴ ᴛᴏ. ɪꜰ ɪ ᴄᴏᴜʟᴅ ᴄʜᴀɴɢᴇ ᴛʜᴇ ᴡᴀʏ ᴛʜᴀᴛ ʏᴏᴜ ꜱᴇᴇ ʏᴏᴜʀꜱᴇʟꜰ, ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴏᴜʟᴅɴ'ᴛ ᴡᴏɴᴅᴇʀ 'ᴡʜʏ' ʜᴇʀᴇ. ᴛʜᴇʏ ᴅᴏɴ'ᴛ ᴅᴇꜱᴇʀᴠᴇ ʏᴏᴜ."
I tried to scream, but my head was ʊռɖɛʀաǟȶɛʀ. They called me weak like I'm not just somebody's daughter. It could've been a nightmare, but it felt like they were right there. It feels like yesterday was a year ago, but I don't want to let anybody know because everybody wants something from me now, and I don't want to let them down. I had a dream I got everything I wanted, but when I wake up I see you with me. You'd say, "ᴀꜱ ʟᴏɴɢ ᴀꜱ ɪ'ᴍ ʜᴇʀᴇ, ɴᴏ ᴏɴᴇ ᴄᴀɴ ʜᴜʀᴛ ʏᴏᴜ. ɪ ᴅᴏɴ'ᴛ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʟɪᴇ ʜᴇʀᴇ, ʙᴜᴛ ʏᴏᴜ ᴄᴏᴜʟᴅ ʟᴇᴀʀɴ ᴛᴏ. ɪꜰ ɪ ᴄᴏᴜʟᴅ ᴄʜᴀɴɢᴇ ᴛʜᴇ ᴡᴀʏ ᴛʜᴀᴛ ʏᴏᴜ ꜱᴇᴇ ʏᴏᴜʀꜱᴇʟꜰ, ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴏᴜʟᴅɴ'ᴛ ᴡᴏɴᴅᴇʀ 'ᴡʜʏ' ʜᴇʀᴇ. ᴛʜᴇʏ ᴅᴏɴ'ᴛ ᴅᴇꜱᴇʀᴠᴇ ʏᴏᴜ."
If I knew it all then, would I do it again? If they knew what they said went straight to my head, what would they say instead?
