I wish that I, I wish that I, I wish that I - could pick myself up

I wish that I, I wish that I, I wish that I - could pick myself up

I wish that I, I wish that I, I wish that I - could pick myself up

I wish that I, I wish that I, I wish that I - could pick myself up

I wish that I, I wish that I, I wish that I - could pick myself up

I wish that I, I wish that I, I wish that I - could pick myself up

I wish that I, I wish that I, I wish that I - could pick myself up

I wish that I, I wish that I, I wish that I - could pick myself up

Trapped imprisoned, I know no other way to be

No matter how hard I try I'm never going to be really free

Surrounded by lies, try to hold my integrity

Searching for a higher goal, trying to find the real me

I wish that I, I wish that I

Could change my values and ignore the hate inside

I wish that I, I wish that I

Could put the pieces back and make another try

I wish that I, I wish that I

Could change my values and ignore the hate inside

I wish that I, I wish that I

Could put the pieces back and make another try

Being dragged down in this ocean of fools

Their golden horse god, obey the master, money rules

Try ro reach the surface but my emotions drag me down

I can't control myself, my rage makes me drown

I wish that I, I wish that I -

Could change my values and ignore the hate inside

I wish that I, I wish that I -

Could put the pieces back and make another try

I wish that I, I wish that I -

Could change my values and ignore the hate inside

I wish that I, I wish that I -

Could put the pieces back and make another try

I try, I try, I try to look beyond the whole

It's time to realize there's gotta be something more

In acts of selfishness we tend to ignore

What we really are living for
