Lyrics
Wishing
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.
At least you tried
That's more than anyone around you
And if you lied
Would it fade out of your memory
Wishing it all away from you
Wishing is all you'll ever do
Wish I was here with you
Then I'd be fine
And if you died
Would they gather all around you
And if you cried
Would it wash away your misery
Wishing it all away from you
Wishing is all you'll ever do
Wish I was here with you
Then I'd be fine
It's worse at night
Spirits flying all around you
Without the light
They can take away your sanity
Wishing it all away from you
Wishing is all you'll ever do
Wish I was here with you
Then I'd be fine
