A Dream in Worth Ten Thousand Words

A Dream in Worth Ten Thousand Words

A Poem by Josh Anderson

I've got a runaway dream 
And the demons won't leave 
They claw at what's not there 
And no it's not fair 
To live it again

The prophets preach
Listen children to what we teach 
Hear our words and pray
That they won't take you away 
For having a dream

You've got a message in scars 
And a half cocked heart 
It's ready to blow 
And God only knows 
Which of us are safe

The corrupt will lie 
Nothing to see, everything's alright 
We won't hold a gun to your head 
Just another law instead 
To keep you safe

How can they say 
That the stars in my eyes will fade 
A dream is worth ten thousand words
Nothing goes unheard 
When the heart is set free
