I Used to Dream - Broken Records

You pick me up in the morning light

With a heavy head and sallow eyes

A ball of flesh and heavy bone

Known better days are kinda sore

I used to dream of leaving here

Now I just sleep away the fear

But nothing much ever came from me

A sack of empty promises

And if all these selfish thoughts would please just stop

Sometimes do you wish you could watch it burn

Your life you’ve built and the things you own

How I dreamt of her again last night

And how I could put the past to right

And if all these selfish thoughts would all just stop

And leave a little room for someone else

When all that it would help will fall behind

I used to dream of leaving here

But the roots that bind were mine to grow
