Sometimes I wish
I could turn off my brain
Numb all the pain
Wash it away with the rain
Sometimes I wish
I wasn’t so unsure
So insecure
Always wanting more
Sometimes I wish
I could want so much less
I could ignore all the stress
Escape the chaos
Sometimes I wish
That I was enough
That life wasn’t so tough
Things weren’t so rough
Sometimes I wish
That I could not feel
Because I just can’t deal
Never seeming to heal
Sometimes I wish
That everything was ok
That things would go my way
And not be in such disarray
Sometimes I wish
But that’s all they are
Figments surrounded by scars
They don’t get you very far
