When do we start having them,
When do we realize what they are,
How do we tell it apart from reality,
At an early age?
When do they turn into nightmares,
When do the monsters decide to come after us,
How do we tell the good monsters from the bad,
At an early age?
When do they turn meaningful,
When do we start reading something into them,
How do we tell if our interpretation is true,
At an early age?
When do they turn into wishes,
When do they become things we hope to have,
How do we know if they are realistic,
At an early age?
At an early age,
It’s easy to have big dreams,
But in an empty stomach,
It’s too hard to dream at all!
