if only i could

be as tall as the mountains

or as sturdy as wood

i hope you'll believe

i would if i could

i wish i wanted

to get up out of bed

but i don't think you'd understand

my mind just feels dead

i want to be happy

like the dogs and the bees

but it's very clear

that they are not me

i can never be happy

no matter how hard i try

no matter how hard

i try not to cry

i wish i could

do things i can't do

i'd wish i had potential

but i know i'd give it to you
