Dream Crusher

Story Behind The Song

My father told me I should give up all my dreams and just live for my kids, which I practically do anyway. It just hurt me that he would say such a thing because he knows my dreams keep me more excited about life. I couldn't sleep all night and the next morning I wrote this song "Dream Crusher".

Lyrics

Dream Crusher

Verse:
When I see your face, I get a little sick 'cause I don't like the way that you've been treating me.

You walk around this place with your head so high, I'm really quite surprised it hasn't hit the sky.

If I were you and you were me, I know exactly what I would do. I would't laugh a single dream away. I'd have your back all the way.

Chorus:
"Cause you're a dream crusher that's what you are. Dream crusher, you say I'll never be a star. Dream crusher, you suck out the live and all I want to know is how do you sleep at night?

Verse:
You call it honesty, I think it's kinda mean the way you use your twisted philosophy. Why don't you cheer me on, just give it a try instead of throwing your words to make fun of me.

Your cutting words won't take this life and spin it 'round and 'round and 'round. Don't even try and take that knife and stick it in my heart. In my heart. In my heart.

Chorus

Bridge:
Try and knock me off my feet, I'll bounce back every time. I've got a future burning, you'll be cryin' when you're left, cryin' when you're left behind.

Chorus
