Wish I May |
I am losing my love for adventure |
I’m losing all respect |
For me and myself tonight |
I wonder what happens if i get to |
The end of this tunnel |
And there isn’t a light |
I’ve worn down the treads |
On all of my tires |
I’ve worn through the elbows |
And the knees of my clothing |
I am stumbling down |
The gravel driveway of desire |
Trying not to wake up |
My sleeping self-loathing |
Do you ever have that dream |
Where you open your mouth |
And you try to scream |
But you can’t make a sound |
That’s every day starting now |
That’s every day starting now |
Don’t tell me it’s gonna be alright |
You can’t sell me on your optimism tonight |
It’s stiff competition |
To see who can stay up later |
The stars or the street lights |
All they really want |
Is to be alone with the darkness |
No more wish i may |
No more wish i might |
It takes a stiff upper lip |
Just to hold up my face |
I got to suck it up and savor |
The taste of my own behavior |
I am spinning with longing |
Faster than a roulette wheel |
This is not who i meant to be |
This is not how i meant to feel |
I don’t think i am strong enough |
To do this much longer |
God i wish i was stronger |
This song could never be long enough |
To express every longing |
God i wish it was longer |
