Dreams

Dreams don’t come true
People die still hoping
And you just be glad they do
Because dreams should not come true
What if everyone had the dream
Of having a million dollars
And everyone got their dream
A million dollars would be a nickel
And they would still be just as poor
And happiness would turn into despair
Because we got what we looking for
Just not our fair share
And even if you owned a million bucks
There would really be nothing you could do
Because in our time the price of someone’s soul
is only worth a nickel or  two
and if your stacks of nickels
represented all the people you killed
Would it be better to have empty pockets
or both your pockets filled?
