Wish It Were Me
You've been bringing me down for a while now
And I'm fighting against all the things you say
I wish somebody could just tell me how
To not let you get in the way
You give what you don't want given to you
If you focus on me you can hide the truth
Why is it those who wanna go places
Try to bring you down?
Why is it those who wanna fly higher
Watch as you drown, drown?
All of their hopes are pinned on your fall
Waiting for your failure
But you'll achieve great things beyond their dreams
They're saying "oh, I wish it were me"
And isn't it kind of funny how all this comes
From the people who lack ambition?
Their decision, is visioning everything
I'm gonna do wrong
While I do what they wish they had done, oh oh oh
Why is it those who wanna go places
Try to bring you down?
Why is it those who wanna fly higher
Watch as you drown, drown?
All of their hopes are pinned on your fall
Waiting for your failure
But you'll achieve great things beyond their dreams
They're saying "oh, I wish it were me"
I wish it were, I wish it were me
I wish it were me
I wish it were, I wish it were me
And, oh, I must admit
I've been that guy but I think it's time
That we grow up, move on
Stand up and be strong
And stop pushing people down just to feel a little higher
Why is it those who wanna go places
Try to bring you down?
Why is it those who wanna fly higher
Watch as you drown, drown?
All of their hopes are pinned on your fall
Waiting for your failure
But you'll achieve great things beyond their dreams
They're saying "oh, I wish it were me"
And I'm fighting against all the things you say
I wish somebody could just tell me how
To not let you get in the way
You give what you don't want given to you
If you focus on me you can hide the truth
Why is it those who wanna go places
Try to bring you down?
Why is it those who wanna fly higher
Watch as you drown, drown?
All of their hopes are pinned on your fall
Waiting for your failure
But you'll achieve great things beyond their dreams
They're saying "oh, I wish it were me"
And isn't it kind of funny how all this comes
From the people who lack ambition?
Their decision, is visioning everything
I'm gonna do wrong
While I do what they wish they had done, oh oh oh
Why is it those who wanna go places
Try to bring you down?
Why is it those who wanna fly higher
Watch as you drown, drown?
All of their hopes are pinned on your fall
Waiting for your failure
But you'll achieve great things beyond their dreams
They're saying "oh, I wish it were me"
I wish it were, I wish it were me
I wish it were me
I wish it were, I wish it were me
And, oh, I must admit
I've been that guy but I think it's time
That we grow up, move on
Stand up and be strong
And stop pushing people down just to feel a little higher
Why is it those who wanna go places
Try to bring you down?
Why is it those who wanna fly higher
Watch as you drown, drown?
All of their hopes are pinned on your fall
Waiting for your failure
But you'll achieve great things beyond their dreams
They're saying "oh, I wish it were me"
