and i think that's my problem
i want to live a life
only found in books and movies

i want to hold your hand upon a balcony and kiss you as the sun sets
i want to feel the wind runs its fingers through my hair from atop the eiffel tower
i want to save the world and run
i want to wake up every morning with you by my side
i want to wake up to the smell of coffee and the sound of waves crashing upon a beach

i want to look onto the horizon
into the stars
and believe it when i say,
i have lived my life to the fullest
and i am happy.

i want to be taught what my father knows
i wanted to follow in his footsteps
but all i became was a massive disappointment
and failure

i want to live the life i've always wanted
i want to live the life i've never gotten
i want to live the life
they never gave me the chance to live

i want to live the life they took from me

i want to live
a happy life

i want to travel the world and leave a mark
i want to save the universe and have my name known across the eons
i want to be the one that lit the stars on fire
i want to be the source
of all the bright, burning things in this world

i want to be
what i should have been

i want to live the life
i should have had
