Lyrics
Distant
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I wish I were selfish like all the rest
I wish I were the best
I wish I were strong but sometimes I'm so weak
That I barely can stand on my feet
I talk about the things I shouldn't
Regret the things I could or couldn't do
If only I could cut these chains and live
I don't know if I'm wrong, but I'm different
Why does it seem so right?
I feel I don't belong, I'm so distant
I'm sick of believing in lies
Yes, I'm singing my song, but I'm dreaming
What matters just comes through the eyes
For you, for you
I wonder what happens when you shut your eyes
If you can sleep at night
Is that really you or is it just a mask?
Or only just a phase to pass?
Someday you'll run out of excuses
And then you'll wipe that smile off of your face
If only I could just be there to say
I don't know if I'm wrong, but I'm different
Why does it seem so right?
I feel I don't belong, I'm so distant
I'm sick of believing in lies
Yes, I'm singing my song, but I'm dreaming
What matters just comes through the eyes
For you, for you
Why am I the only one who cares?
I'm tired of fighting
Of trying, denying
Believe me, believe me!
I wish I were selfish
Wish I were the best
I wish I were strong
I wish I were like the rest
I wish I were shallow
I wish I were you
To not give a damn' bout the world like a fool
