Something I Could Never Be

I wish I could be normal, but what does that even mean?
I wish I could be smaller, taller, and everything in between
I wish I could be patient, 'cause they say that it's a virtue
But I just want a quick fix, trade me in for someone new

'Cause it all seems perfect in my dreams
But when I wake up, I'm still me

Does anybody have it all? Can anybody set me free?
When the midnight falls, I turn myself on me
It hits me like a drop of ink, clouding everything I see
But if I'm being honest, all I ever wanted

Was something I could never be

Back when I was younger, doubt knocked at my door
Asked me if I'm worthy and filled my head with words
Like, shouldn't I be stronger? And that boys shouldn't cry
If beauty's for beholders, could you lend me your eyes?

'Cause it all seems perfect in my dreams
But when I wake up, I'm still me

Does anybody have it all? Can anybody set me free?
When the midnight falls, I turn myself on me
It hits me like a drop of ink (drop), clouding everything I see (see)
But if I'm being honest, all I ever wanted

Is to be okay not being okay, maybe it's right to go the wrong way
Imperfection is just perception

'Cause no one really has it all, nobody can set me free
When the midnight falls (midnight falls), I won't turn on me
I'm setting fire to the dark, lighting up the truth at heart
Finally, I'm honest, there's no love in wanting

Something I could never be (mmm)
Something I could never be (mmm)
Something I could never be
Something I could never be, hmm
