I Wish, As If
It was a beautiful day
To walk over the bay
The smell of salt in the air
The cold wind in your hair
Sacred and mundane
I wish there was time
I wish there was hope
The grains of sands will fall
As do the rest of us all
Into the water below
As the minutes went by
You felt the salt in your eyes
Getting sick of the breeze
Smells like death from the seas
I've always hated goodbyes
Do you see through
Pink clouds in view?
In the cover of twilight
When you've had your fill
You started gnashing your teeth
Started biting at me
Moving in for the kill
After regaining senses
The daylight is violent and rude
The air is toxic and thick
Like an oil slick
Soon we'll be swimming in crude
Now I see you in nature
I see you're stalking my dreams
Did I just imagine?
It's like it never happened
But I feel everything
Yeah we never listen
We never learn
And then question
Why everything hurts
Wish i'd seen
The view from the ground
But it's too late to turn back now
Do you see through
Pink clouds in view?
I can't fix what is broke
Can't give back what you stole
As if
I'd cut off both your hands
Never touch a heart again
I wish I wasn't here
I wish I'd disappear
As if
I wish it didn't hurt
That you'd get what you deserve
I can't fix what is broke
Can't give back what you stole
I wish
As if
I can't fix what is broke
Can't give back what you stole
To walk over the bay
The smell of salt in the air
The cold wind in your hair
Sacred and mundane
I wish there was time
I wish there was hope
The grains of sands will fall
As do the rest of us all
Into the water below
As the minutes went by
You felt the salt in your eyes
Getting sick of the breeze
Smells like death from the seas
I've always hated goodbyes
Do you see through
Pink clouds in view?
In the cover of twilight
When you've had your fill
You started gnashing your teeth
Started biting at me
Moving in for the kill
After regaining senses
The daylight is violent and rude
The air is toxic and thick
Like an oil slick
Soon we'll be swimming in crude
Now I see you in nature
I see you're stalking my dreams
Did I just imagine?
It's like it never happened
But I feel everything
Yeah we never listen
We never learn
And then question
Why everything hurts
Wish i'd seen
The view from the ground
But it's too late to turn back now
Do you see through
Pink clouds in view?
I can't fix what is broke
Can't give back what you stole
As if
I'd cut off both your hands
Never touch a heart again
I wish I wasn't here
I wish I'd disappear
As if
I wish it didn't hurt
That you'd get what you deserve
I can't fix what is broke
Can't give back what you stole
I wish
As if
I can't fix what is broke
Can't give back what you stole
