Wish To Be Me
I wish that I was what you wish me to be
A girl who follows someone else's dream
To be someone living a different life
Who has things she could easily get
I wish that I could be her
That girl who doesn't fight, demand, or choose
A girl that would follow your every word
And do what you say, and choose what you would
To be someone living in a dream of dreams
Where I please those around me
Never ask, question, or think about me
To be something someone else could see
But my dreams are a failure
My hopes are too far away
My wishes keep dying
When I am under your spell
I choose the wrong things
And fight for my dreams
I spend way too much time asking
Who I really should be
If I could I would be all of them
Split up for everyone to have
And complete all those wishes
To make everyone proud
But I have this life
And I choose my own roads
I live my experiences
And I learn on my own
I let myself dream
And let my heart wish
I live to be free
After all I am just me
