Boulevard Of Broken Dreams

Shards of glass
Scrape my feet
Causing them to bleed
This is the boulevard of broken dreams
Shards of expectations
Fanatical scenerios
Being who you imagined you were
Who you wanted to be
But now this dark place
Full of screeching banshees
Dark gnarled trees
And thick clouds
Those broken shards of glass
Piercing your feet everything you walk
Are all your dreams
And fantasies
This is your boulevard of broken dreams
Astronaut
Firefighter
Police officer
Doctor
Those were the things you wished to be
Dreamed to be
But now they lay at your feet
Broken. Beyond repair.
Jagged and sharp
High like barbed wire
They stretch for miles
Miles and miles upon shards
Broken dreams
And expectations
Epic fantasies that never came to be
This is the boulevard of broken dreams
