Wish
Wish if you will
Not for the cynic in your head
Or the background noise in your bed
The one truth
That I wanna have
The one thing that I can't grasp
The one person I can't get
Is she fiction? Or is she real?
I once had a dream so bright
My eyes they lit up night skies
I reached for the sun
To be burned by no one
And now I medicate just to make time fly by
But this road is tough
And not for the fainted heart
If you can pull out your side arms then we will push
But if I could sing out loud
She'd know, know, know
She's in my head
Doctor don't you tell, tell, tell
She's my Achilles heel
'Cause my nights spent searching dead damp bodies
On a dark street isn't what I need
I wanna make an entrance
But I'm not sure how to go about it
So I sing it out, and I can sing it proud
I know it now, and I can make it out
But if I could sing out loud
She'd know, know, know
She's in my head
Doctor don't you tell, tell, tell
She's my Achilles heel
'Cause I'm obsessive by nature
And compulsive by the circumstance
Guided by only one thing going on in my fucking head
Well I've spent so much time chasing one girl I'm never gonna have
So much time chasing one dream that I won't get
You are not the cynic inside my head
You are the background noise
(And I'm gonna sing it loud until everybody hears me)
(I'm gonna sing it loud to the whole damn town)
You are the story I've left unsaid
The one truth that I wanna have
You are the one thing that I can't grasp
The one person that I can't get
So are you fiction or are you real?
Are you fiction, or real?
Wish
Wish if you will
Not for the cynic or your head
Or the background noise in your bed
