I wish I could be what you want me to be.
I wish I could go back to the old me.
I wish I could laugh, I wish I could smile.
I wish I wouldn't cry rivers like the Nile.
I wish I didn't have all of these scars.
I wish I didn't feel like an alien from Mars.
I wish I could be like every other happy kid.
I wish I didn't feel exposed, like a jar without a lid.
I wish people knew just how I felt.
I wish I could disappear like ice, just melt.
I wish you could understand why I can't just be happy with you.
I wish that you could feel this, that you knew.
