I Wish
I scream into the void
Embrace the night
To keep from falling
I stare into the light
To blind myself
From what went wrong and
I hear you calling
Your essence still remains...
I can't deny
The way
The pain
Escaped my sight
And I
Was wrong, but had no right
I never meant to watch you die
I wish
I knew what you'd been through
I wish
I came around for you
I wish
I would have made this right
So you could still be here tonight
I carry this by choice
I could have tethered you to something
This guilt divides my soul
And in between, I'm left with nothing
I hear you calling
Your essence still remains...
I can't deny
The way
The pain
Escaped my sight
And I
Was wrong, but had no right
I never meant to watch you die
I wish
I knew what you'd been through
I wish
I came around for you
I wish
I would have made this right
So you could still be here tonight
I cannot take this
I'm a shell of myself through my empathy
I let go, to survive my own sympathy
Let go of me
I'm just rotting away with the thought of your memories
Take it, take it back
Just take it, take it back
I can't deny
The way
The pain
Escaped my sight
And I
Was wrong, but had no right
I never meant to watch you die
I wish
I knew what you'd been through
I wish
I came around for you
I wish
I would have made this right
So you could still be here tonight
Embrace the night
To keep from falling
I stare into the light
To blind myself
From what went wrong and
I hear you calling
Your essence still remains...
I can't deny
The way
The pain
Escaped my sight
And I
Was wrong, but had no right
I never meant to watch you die
I wish
I knew what you'd been through
I wish
I came around for you
I wish
I would have made this right
So you could still be here tonight
I carry this by choice
I could have tethered you to something
This guilt divides my soul
And in between, I'm left with nothing
I hear you calling
Your essence still remains...
I can't deny
The way
The pain
Escaped my sight
And I
Was wrong, but had no right
I never meant to watch you die
I wish
I knew what you'd been through
I wish
I came around for you
I wish
I would have made this right
So you could still be here tonight
I cannot take this
I'm a shell of myself through my empathy
I let go, to survive my own sympathy
Let go of me
I'm just rotting away with the thought of your memories
Take it, take it back
Just take it, take it back
I can't deny
The way
The pain
Escaped my sight
And I
Was wrong, but had no right
I never meant to watch you die
I wish
I knew what you'd been through
I wish
I came around for you
I wish
I would have made this right
So you could still be here tonight
