The Desert

I wish I didn't have to be living in the desert
Where there's only sand thoughts
The wind won't blow off
And every time you run
You go a little deeper
'Till you're lost in the sound of your own words

I wish I'd get a hold
Of the forthcoming future
And be aware of the decisions I am making
'Cause I regret too many things to this day
And that's why I always think a hundred times before something I say

I hate to feel this low
When I could just fly high
It's everybody's advice
To put my thoughts at ease for a while

Ooooh
Ooooh

I sympathize with your problems and decisions
I want to be your friend all the time
'Cause even though I act like I don't care and I'm full of myself
It's all a disguise

And oh, oh
Give me time to run
I will show you what I'm capable of
I need a little crisis to feel strong
A pause to reorganize my thoughts

But I never know what I want
And I never know what I need
I want to be good but I can't go far with it
I never know what I want
And I never know what I need
Until somebody comes up to me with the answer

I never know what I want
And I never know what I need
I want to be good but I can't go far with it
I never know what I want
And I never know what I need
I want to be who you want me to be

Ooooh
Ooooh
Ooooh
Ooooh

I wish I didn't have to be living in the desert
I wish I didn't have to be living in the desert
I wish I didn't have to be living in the desert
I wish I didn't have to be living in the desert
