I Wish I Could
Something in my mind I can't explain
Like it always kinda feels like it's gonna rain
Can't tell if you're real or just a ghost
All my friends keep telling me I gotta let it go
I wish I could
If you're a lot like me you know nothing really matters much
The pains in my chest have reached to my head and they keep adding up
I tried to come clean about everything but it just wasn't enough
If you're a lot like me you nothing really matters much
All these lines keep getting deeper
That can't be my face in the mirror
At the very best I'm just waiting to die
Been trying to live with the thorn in my side
But it's not getting better no it's not getting better
Well keep your head up and don't you look down
Keep your head up and don't you look down
I wish I could
If you're a lot like me you keep everything deep inside
Locked it up tight and kept out of sight away from prying eyes
Everything changed and I haven't been the same since the day my father died
If you're a lot like me you keep everything deep inside
All these lines keep getting deeper
That can't be my face in the mirror
At the very best I'm just waiting to die
Been trying to live with the thorn in my side
But it's not getting better no it's not getting better
Well keep your head up and don't you look down
Keep your head up and don't you look down
I wish I could
Can't tell if you're real or just a ghost
All my friends keep telling me I gotta let it go
I wish I could
I wish I could
Tell you everything's gonna be alright
I wish I could
Like it always kinda feels like it's gonna rain
Can't tell if you're real or just a ghost
All my friends keep telling me I gotta let it go
I wish I could
If you're a lot like me you know nothing really matters much
The pains in my chest have reached to my head and they keep adding up
I tried to come clean about everything but it just wasn't enough
If you're a lot like me you nothing really matters much
All these lines keep getting deeper
That can't be my face in the mirror
At the very best I'm just waiting to die
Been trying to live with the thorn in my side
But it's not getting better no it's not getting better
Well keep your head up and don't you look down
Keep your head up and don't you look down
I wish I could
If you're a lot like me you keep everything deep inside
Locked it up tight and kept out of sight away from prying eyes
Everything changed and I haven't been the same since the day my father died
If you're a lot like me you keep everything deep inside
All these lines keep getting deeper
That can't be my face in the mirror
At the very best I'm just waiting to die
Been trying to live with the thorn in my side
But it's not getting better no it's not getting better
Well keep your head up and don't you look down
Keep your head up and don't you look down
I wish I could
Can't tell if you're real or just a ghost
All my friends keep telling me I gotta let it go
I wish I could
I wish I could
Tell you everything's gonna be alright
I wish I could
