I wish I could fly, like the birds in the sky.
I wish I could be with the ones, who'd mourn when I die
I wish I could lie, just to get by
Away from all this, because I'm scared and I tried
I wish I could cry, I wish I could die
Because nothing seems real, the tears nor the life.
I wish I could heal, I wish I could feel
But the wounds are too deep and dead people can't feel
I wish I could show you the pain that I hide, but I carry this burden and I no longer confide
I wish I could express, I wish I could love
But this past that haunts me is above
I know I'm a monster, an evil in disguise
You say you're better? You just portray a lie
