i wish i may i wish i might
run away tonight
and drop the flesh off of my frame and
finally end this game
Of shame
we play running back n forth down the hall
your the one i wanted most of all
but without me youd be happy
its things like this that make
me wonder why im here
My spirit does break
why do i lie
when the truth is clear
i wish i may i wish i might
run away tonight
to drop the flesh off of my frame heaven and hell both have a claim.
If I could fall right off this earth
would anyone notice the lose in worth
or is it that I'm not someone
or is it that Im not to be recognized till I'm gone.
If I stumble it I stare
or dare
to burn it down
and show that I've always been a clown.
Would they hate me more or less
for that is the true test.
I wish I may I wish I might
run away tonight
to drop my flesh off of my frame
never to find home again.
If I could run right to your grave
could my heart you save?
Would you recognize
or demonize
me
if you were able to see
all I've done
all I've lost and ever won
would you see
me for me
or just the me I pretend to be.
You of all people who knew me
and not just this me I appear to be
surly would recognize me.
I wish I may I wish I might
run away tonight.
