Pipe Dream Lyrics by Sara Bredemeyer

Heavy Hearts

2017

We're not invincible like we thought we were
When we were young and the world was ours
We're not unstoppable, I know this is true
For I have stopped pursuing you
You're a pipe dream, baby, you're hollow
And I am done with grasping at straws
So when you leave this time I won't follow
I must learn to be strong
Cuz you're a dead end, baby, I got places to be
And I'm going nowhere with you
It's not like you've really been around lately
What is there left to lose?
Cuz you're a pipe dream, baby, you're hollow
And I am done with grasping at straws
So when you leave this time I won't follow
This is not where I belong
I can't grow cynical, it's not who I am
If you know me even a little
It may seem pitiful that I'm still around
But it's not that simple
You're a pipe dream, baby, you're hollow
And I am done with grasping at straws
So when you leave this time I won't follow
I must learn to be strong
Cuz you're a dead end, baby, I got places to be
And I'm going nowhere with you
It's not like you've really been around lately
What is there left to lose?
Cuz you're a pipe dream, baby, you're hollow
And I am done with grasping at straws
So when you leave this time I won't follow
This is not where I belong
I know it wasn't big to you
But to me it was enormous
I've been in many sets of arms
But yours were always warmest
I wish I could leave a piece of me
For you to hold in your heart
But you won't accept my parting gift
So silently we fall apart
You're a pipe dream, baby, you're hollow
And I am done with grasping at straws
So when you leave this time I won't follow
I must learn to be strong
Cuz you're a dead end, baby, I got places to be
And I'm going nowhere with you
It's not like you've really been around lately
What is there left to lose?
Cuz you're a pipe dream, baby, you're hollow
And I am done with grasping at straws
So when you leave this time I won't follow
This is not where I belong
I had to learn the hard way
Not to stick wires into sockets
So we walk around with secrets
Tucked away inside our pockets
I can't share my inner dialogue
It gets caught in my throat
So I will whisper it out windows
Just to keep myself afloat
I am learning to let go
I am taking small steps slowly
You're a pipe dream, baby, you're hollow
And I am done with grasping at straws
So when you leave this time I won't follow
I must learn to be strong
Cuz you're a dead end, baby, I got places to be
And I'm going nowhere with you
It's not like you've really been around lately
What is there left to lose?
Cuz you're a pipe dream, baby, you're hollow
And I cannot keep grasping at straws
So when you leave this time I can't follow
Though it tears me to pieces, you know
