Wish I Could
Wish I could love like you
Guess I ain't got the tools
Through the doors of my chest
I would kick 'em down
Wide open
Wish I could talk like you
Pretty words ain't got no use
With my lungs and my tongue
I could keep em round
Here's hoping
Down in the depths of me
I'd be hugging my enemies
I'd be searching the seven seas
Just to learn how to love
In all my ecstasy
You'd be flying right next to me
I'd be forgiven everything
But my surface is rough
Wish I could dance like you
Like I ain't got a thing to lose
Lift my hands to the sky
Like I'm reaching for God's mountain
Wish I could cry like you
Have a freedom to speak my truth
I could groan all alone
Just to let out that I'm broken
Down in the depths of me
I'd be hugging my enemies
I'd be searching the seven seas
Just to learn how to love
In all my ecstasy
You'd be flying right next to me
I'd be forgiven everything
But my surface is rough
Stiff in my bones
I push 'em all away
Cause feeling the closeness just inflames my pain
I'm hiding my soul to keep from all this rage
It's taking its toll
But if I had my way
Down in the depths of me
I'd be hugging my enemies
I'd be searching the seven seas
Just to learn how to love
In all my ecstasy
You'd be flying right next to me
I'd be forgiven everything
But my surface is rough
Guess I ain't got the tools
Through the doors of my chest
I would kick 'em down
Wide open
Wish I could talk like you
Pretty words ain't got no use
With my lungs and my tongue
I could keep em round
Here's hoping
Down in the depths of me
I'd be hugging my enemies
I'd be searching the seven seas
Just to learn how to love
In all my ecstasy
You'd be flying right next to me
I'd be forgiven everything
But my surface is rough
Wish I could dance like you
Like I ain't got a thing to lose
Lift my hands to the sky
Like I'm reaching for God's mountain
Wish I could cry like you
Have a freedom to speak my truth
I could groan all alone
Just to let out that I'm broken
Down in the depths of me
I'd be hugging my enemies
I'd be searching the seven seas
Just to learn how to love
In all my ecstasy
You'd be flying right next to me
I'd be forgiven everything
But my surface is rough
Stiff in my bones
I push 'em all away
Cause feeling the closeness just inflames my pain
I'm hiding my soul to keep from all this rage
It's taking its toll
But if I had my way
Down in the depths of me
I'd be hugging my enemies
I'd be searching the seven seas
Just to learn how to love
In all my ecstasy
You'd be flying right next to me
I'd be forgiven everything
But my surface is rough
