I feel empty inside
and all of a sudden scared to death
this hollowness in my stomach
hurts so bad my soul can't rest
I now realize, the dream
these past few years
have been working up to
has finally come true
at first I was thrilled by the memory of it
but now I must replace it with something new
to help me up from bed
something to look forward to
There's a hole where my spirit used to be
as if I was torn apart
I'm stuck dreaming of a memory
repeated in my head, messing with my heart
I must retrieve the hope I lost
I need a dream to pursue
far out of reach yet still possible
'cause dreams are worth holding on to
