There's a burned out farmhouse down the road
Barns falling in and the fields over grown
"Keep Outside" on the broken fence
Passer's by say "What A Mess"
It Don't cross their mind that not long agoThat was somebody's dream, Somebody's hope
Somebody's world gone up in smoke
Ain't Life a twisting turning changing machine
They Had big plans they had no doubts
But then the bottom Fell out, it fell apart at the seems
But you wouldn't know that used to be Somebody's DreamHe's 17 his thumbs in the air,
Running away to God knows where
No One wants to pick him up,
All they See is a no good punk with torn up clothes, the cigarette and the hair[Chorus]
That's somebody's dream, Somebody's hope
Somebody's world gone up in smoke
Ain't Life a twisting turning changing machine
His Folks had plans they had no doubts
They had his future figured out
Guess he just figured Differently
Maybe you got room in your back seat for Somebody's DreamA Girl walks Into a Pawn shop to sell a wedding ring
Says "Since he left me Man I just don't need a thing"
She's Thinking about what happened
Thinking what went wrong
Man across the counters thinking What Price tag he'll put on[Chorus]Somebody's Dream [Repeat: x3]
