Sometimes I Wish
The time of my prime is fading
Away with every wish I ever wished
The whole of my heart is still paying
For every person I ever kissed
Ignorance to the mistakes of my generation
Is catching up with me today
Seeing exactly where my life is
Is making me wish my life away
Sometimes I wish I could step outside myself
And see everything you see
Sometimes I wish I could step outside myself
And be someone else than me
Watching my family suffer around me
In part due to my inability to come to their aid
Is reminding me of my uselessness
And of every mistake I ever made
I want to live the life they haven't
And stand were few have stood
I want them to live the life they haven't
But with hope they still could
Sometimes I wish I could step outside myself
And see everything you see
Sometimes I wish I could step outside myself
And be someone else than me
The dawn of my life ever approaching
Can I really see me living to see 23
The frustration everyday gathering
I feel so guilty for my family
With all the support they ever gave
And all the sacrifices they made today
How dare I live my life
Bounded in hopelessness this way
Sometimes I wish I could step outside myself
And see everything you see
Sometimes I wish I could step outside myself
And be someone else than me
